Stage three isn't that bad of an install just make sure you take your time, and it helps if you have someone that has done it before. If you need help shoot me a pm I've done both injectors and turbo swaps.

Peter and I did my first STi turbo swap, then i did my second one all by my lonesome 

Injectors are worst then the actual turbo

  OK.  It wasn't a jab at you.  If whoever is providing a warranty on your turbo says to use nothing but 10W-30 Dino oil year-round, great, you go ahead and do it.  All I'm saying is, you're not driving a 20 year old Turbo-Diesel truck, rather, a modern tuned performance turbocharged car that should really be using high quality synthetic oil.

 And to add to what Dan said:  Peter gave me a hand with my injectors as well.  They're kind of a pain, but not too bad.

I have used mobile 1 and napa gold filters in all turbo charged cars ive ever owned with no issues. I let it heat up befor getting on it in the morning and change it every 2800 miles i dont know why every one hates on it so much but to each there own i guess. I currently run m1 5w30 in my stage 3 xt and it loves it. Im sure someone on here is going to tell me how stupid i am so save your breath lol.

Lets hope you dont beat your car alot, 5w-30? Hope you wont be part of the spun rod bearing club.

Yeah, I know it wasn't directed at me. IT's stabdard fare for a forum.

Oil and OCI is a most controversial issue.  The info I was given was from Bryan Nickell of BNR Supercars over the phone as he was packaging my 18g for shipping.  It arrived today!!!  The oil issue continues to be a troll-fest at the legacygt.com where at thread about bolt-on turbo upgrades has heated up, pun intended.  Frankly, I fall on the side of having an appropriate viscosity and keeping it clean with more frequent OCI.  I had a turbo Regal (T-type) for over 20 years and lots of types of oil went thru that with no turbo trouble...other GM issues...not gonna bore ya!

Thanks for the offers and advice so far. I do a little mechanical work, but I don't have the tools, time, skillz for this job.  Freddy has been in contact and is willing to take it on.  I need to get high flow oil line, pump and injectors yet....Mike
