LOL, that is what I did as well...

Make sure you use their online coupon and pick up in the store!!!!

I use code PS20

 

So $124 for bellowed up pipes with all the hardware....Can't beat that with a whisk!

 

Don't take this the wrong way, but you couldn't have had this problem sooner?! I just had my transmission out for the built swap less than two weeks ago and the uppies were in plain sight, easy access, but looked fine. I just didn't want to drop the cash on preventative maintenance... Then I see your previous post.... I spent more on beer and pizza for the friends that showed up for the transmission!

 

Had to read that twice to understand what you were getting at!
Yeah, this would be much easier without the tranny in the way. It would be even easier if I had drunk friends to do it for me. Pulling the down pipe out today and I'll throw the rest together tomorrow. I'll let ya know how it goes.

 

Yeah, too much food. I didn't write that very clearly at all.

Hope it all goes well for ya bud.

 

Thanks man.
At first I thought you were saying I did something wrong, but when I read back thorugh I realized you were wishing that you had known about the pipes before you put the tranny in. Maybe I had turkey on the brain too.

 

So I got the up pipes in today and I've gotta say, this is by far the highest quality Dorman product I've ever dealt with. I can't imagine the International version being any higher quality.
That being said, if you're reading this and looking to install these, do yourself a favor and drop the down pipe and transmission crossmember. After dropping those, everything popped in like a 2 piece jigsaw puzzle.

 

Everything is together! Makin boost, no leaks...
Unforturnately I've screwed something else up. Getting 0 FPR on the Scangauge and it's running really rough and blowing white smoke. Done for the day (frustrated), but glad the hard part is over. Now I've just gotta figure out what the hell I messed up. Thoughts?

 

Fuel pressure off the pump sounds like it.

 

Now that I've calmed down a bit, I think I might have crossed a wire while putting a new pigtail in for the UVCH. I noticed a few wires were rubbed through and had one laying around. It was in the 20s today and I probably fat fingered a couple of the wires. It is encouraging that I'm making 4 pound of boost, even with it running like crap, so at least the turbo rebuild was a success. I was really hoping to see what the WW2 can do tonight. Guess I'll have to settle for delayed satisfaction.
