Forge TIP in WA

[Blitzen]

It took me 3 hours to fit the TIP myself. It isn't hard job, but it can be a bit of a bastard. I fond if you removed the 6mm Allen bolt, and the 3 13mm bolts that hold in the transmission linkage(make sure the car is in neutral), that this gives you enough room to play around with to get the old TIP off and the new TIP on.
This is my install post...

Thanks Quest, we may have to no mechanic here has the courage!!
It could be my Christmas break task...my hands are shaking already.

I was and i am in the same situation in NC ! That's why i had no choice !
The best is to find one mechanic which works with passion....and i think i have find one to fit my Christmas gift (Billies + H&R)...at last

I confirm that this method works as i did mine reffering to it !
A great help i have to say
Shaneth talked about too
And i've posted pics in my thread to complete the install post of Blitzen.

On this pic, you see exactly where are screwed the 2 bolts you have to unscrew as you can go ahead with the install :


Just be carefull to not scratched the coolant pipe near the TIP !
I scratched mine when i remove one of the clamps on the stock TIP... :

Quest, in your photo, the turbo has code number - 5304 101 .... , can you confirm what the whole number is? Just want to work out which turbo your car is running
