Well, I am doing it, still gathering parts, but i have to put it off for a month or so. This little clutch swap is turning into a brakes/calipers/paint rusty shtuff PITA. I want to make sure I have good brakes, so this is a must and is setting me back more than I expected. $300 turns to $600 quickly.

Roman, I may need some ideas on intake pipe routing. I have been looking all over for idears, but until I get far enough to do that portion I am just gathering ideas. I don't want to have to move my battery. The suckiest part is that I have started the process to get my knee scoped. My doc thinks i ...

iminhell, i may have to take you up on that pan. At least as an alternative. I may just drop my pan, center punch and step drill it then thread it like the Roush Turbo install suggests. http://www.sportcompactonly.com/manuals/Brand/Scosche/FocusTurboInstructions1204-R07090034-AA.pdf Not sure though....

I guess I should clarify, does anyone have a rotobroach bit that would work. I would want to install it based on the Vortech kit install instructions.These are the instructions and I don't want it to turn into a trahmatic experience. Anyone done this/has the tools to do it? (from the Vortech install...

Okkay then that is the way to go, next question is how is the best way to achieve that little hole. Ugh, it seems like my whole life I've worried about little holes!!!

I told the wife enough is enough, Gilligan is gonna get boosted, again. This time I have the correct turbo and wastegate to make it right. And no LJ to blow it up for me. I'm only looking to hit about 200 whp as my soon to be driving son will also be driving it. There are only a few parts I need as ...

Eff it, no longer for sale. I told the wife yesterday after getting low balled so hard that it made me pissed off that the car is getting this installed. Since I will have the car torn apart for the clutch install I will be re-installing the turbo. Look out bitches. Turbo Tom's Turbonetics T-3 Super...

Couple of years old. That is why I am pissed. Probably has about 35k on it.

Stock flywheel, will need to get it resurfaced if it is salvageable.

I drive it quite a bit, probably 200 miles a week, this didn't start happening until the past week. Easier on the pocket book than the G8. And yes, if I am going to open it up a stock clutch is going in.

Okay, I started to have some issues over the past week, I don't want to pull this GD POS apart again, but I may have to. Here are the symptoms. In gear tooling along if I press the gas pedal for a little more acceleration RPM's rise crazy like and the car stutters a bit until the clutch catches agai...

I am interested int he control arms and header, i think my header has a hole in it

Reset it before you go through a lot of trouble fixing the issue (if one really exists). Unhook the battery and let it sit for about 5 minutes then reconnect and drive normally and see if it happens again. It probably won't since you only had it happen intermittently once.

I have not, but I am considering it on my G8 since I have their national meet in a couple weeks. I noticed this morning that is is pretty sad looking. What are you considering using?

You are very welcome, sorry about the bad luck you had.
