Congrats Bob! :thumb:

Yeah thanks man... i dunno if this counts as my first turbo kit? or my 2nd? hehe well this is my first Working kit we will just say that :p cant wait to get to drive her some more and feel the power and also see if my injectors can keep up or not. didnt hear any lean knock at 4psi so we will have to see how 8psi goes.

i would have put in .5qt extra because the turbo lines and turbo will hold a decent amount over stock

my car has always taken 5.5 qt to fill it after a oil change is the 3.0 different than the 3.2? the computer at works says they both take 5.0 but with 5 qt in my car it is not in the hash marks... definately add oil if its low.

definitly check it once you start it and let everything settle because the extra 'charger and plumbing will require additional oil.
