I just got really busy at work and the time I was gonna use to swap out parts from my car is now almost gone. I need help swapping out the turbo on my FXT from the stock to a vf39. I have all the parts but no time as it would be my first turbo swap so idk exactly how long I would take without any major hiccups. Anyone on here willing to help me out by helping me swap out the turbo or even just doing it for me? I can provide all the food and drinks if some guys wanna get together and help me out. I'm thinking it shouldn't take too long with experienced guys. I need this done before the PDX tune in Oct.

 

my friends can do it fast but gonna cost money. they're willing to beat whatever anyone else is charging lmk

 

make sure you have "all" the parts you need before you start. things like copper washers for the oil/coolant lines, new/upgraded t-bolt clamps to replace the crappy worm clamps, oil return tube and gasket (if your turbo didn't come with them like mine didn't), up pipe (if you haven't already changed it out because you might as well), up/dp gaskets, boost pill, the list goes on and on. just make sure you are prepared and be careful taking off the turbo inlet as they tend to rip and you'll need to find a new one.

^ditto wat he said about the necessary parts. its a pain in the *** to try and call around every car/hardware store to buy one on the fly

 

Thanks. Got everything. The vf39 already has all the lines and I have drain gaskets. Picking up extra gaskets from subaru tomorrow.
