If you don't mind me asking how long did it take to do? and about how much did the fun stuff cost?

BTW did the garret turbo bolt up like stock?

lets seee the job wasint that badd it was just when i was buting the new turbo on i found i needed little stuff and yes the garret bolted bolted up but it all ready came off a 944 turbo so it was all ready adapted for the car they job was about a 6 hour job im just about done with it. the turbo and wastegate i got used for 400 bucks great deal no shaft play the injecters and retune of chips 500 jpipe was 150 so all together including gaskets and seals about 1300 give or take
