Turbo install at my house! - roll call..

Hi Guys, next weekend we are installing the TPC turbo at my house. Any one interested in helping is welcome to come over. It will most likely take us 2 weekends.

We will Be installing the TPC Turbo in the FrankinCayman, as well as changing out all the lights to LED, and adding RaceMesh to all the openings.

PM me if you are interested in helping.

Man! I'd love to help, get my hands dirty etc.

Unfortunately next weekend is packed!

I usually like to keep things mellow but next weekend is a doosey!
1st communion Sat. morning, wedding Sat. evening, birthday party all day Sunday.

I'll be missing a two day auto-x too

I guess I'd have to leave tonight to make it, so I'd best pass. I'd love to help and would love to do it to my own car - maybe someday.

re: Turbo install at my house! - roll call..

I'd like to see the documentation. Aside from having to go banzai on the air box to move the MAF and install the new air cleaner the install looks pretty straight forward.

Good luck.
