Yeah, I commend you on doing this to.
I've just finished converting my magna to a turbo, and I had never done anything like it before, took me 6 months, but It's well worth it.

Keep it going, you're doing fine!

ok clutch got here today waiting on flywheel.
motor is at the mechanics getting tested to make sure the cylinders and pistons are fine and the turbos are good. He is also looking at the turbo actuator on the front and making space on the back turbo. He is measuring the motor up and going to measure the car up to see what we have to move and see were we can make some space

Got it mate & paid for it. Send me an email & reply with the invoice from my mechanic. Hopefully I'll have it by the end of the week.
