Message: [QUOTE="EskimoPie, post: 1506322, member: 19474"] Finally completed the install. I shot-gunned my approach to the up-pipe. Ordered a new pipe from Midwest, did a PCV removal kit to enable access to the exhaust manifold with the turbo installed, and left the manifold bolts loose after I put the turbo in place. With all of that, I was easily able to get the clamp around the up-pipe. Got it all put back together, very nervously turned that key and she fired right up! Very rough idle for the first 5-10 seconds, but it smoothed out quickly. Was talking to another diesel owner and he said he experienced the same thing after swapping turbos. I'm guessing just takes time to get some oil up in it for the first time. Thanks for all the great advice guys. Happy to be back in my truck! Installing updated Tyrant tunes now. Can't wait to try them out! [/QUOTE]
