Need to order parts Tuesday,,,,Help

Thanks

and this FDDTS - New One-Piece High Pressure Oil Connector

Oil cooler is prob a waste of time. All you can really do is replace it and they arn't cheap

also clean the turbo while its out

just my .02

I would also:
install the larger turbo oil drain line
pull the IPR to inspect the screen
replace the HPOP screen (as long as you are there replacing the fitting)
