F1ERCE Posted January 7, 2010 Share Posted January 7, 2010 I'm replacing the turbo on my 2006 LGT. Its a straight replacement with another vf40. Mine went bad and I bought one of someone who upgraded.My question is, what else do I need as far as new gaskets or anything else. I'll also appreciate any tips as far as installing.

F1ERCE Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 Prepare to be suprised while browsing this site then... No joke! Holy Cow! I was blown away! I told em if I knew they had all this I woulda had em pimp me out when I bought the car in 06. They explained that they did not have all this then. Anyway, I bought a replacement kit they had. It has more than I need but figured better to be safe incase I break an oil line or something. Will tackle this next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
