There is a lot of good info out there, but my ADE guide might be of some use to you. It covers the ADV sensors and a little bit about the studs, boostbox and stuff may be shared. If you don't have a 7mm stud extractor, I'd recommend one. Nothing like breaking a stud off in the head to ruin your timeline.

My Mac valve and oil drain fittings came in today from Doc Race, my gasket and exhaust studs from FCP euro, and I finally got my wastegates from Boostlab. The precision raceworks coils and NGK plugs should be here Friday along with my boost box. Chris said I should get my 02 sensors in a week!

Dropped off the manifold to be ceramic coated at boost lab

Are you going to coat and wrap or just coat and wrap the turbine housing?

 

[Abacus38]

Turbine housing is already coated Im going to put a blanket on it but the header will be coated only. It rains too much down here in florida to be messing around with header wraps

 

[Abacus38]

My boost box and MMP-E relocation brackets came in today!

Is that boostbox v2 or no?

 

[Abacus38]

Nice, I traded a pair of seahawks tickets I couldn't sell for some BL coils so I'll be putting those on soon.

Went ahead ordered Andy's 1000hp intercooler. I was stuck between the VRSF and AD-E for a while but I said mines as well go big and not have to touch it again lol.

Please let us know about the quicklift. Seriously considering one of those. Was reading reviews and they said step 1 was take a bottle of trans fluid and pour it on your head to get that part out of the way. Hopefully the set up issue was resolved with newer revision.

I spent a solid 5 seconds trying to remove one of the exhaust studs and decided not worth the effort or risk. Reused existing studs. Manifold was still there last time I checked, so far so good

ADV's come with anti seize pre applied. Good reminder to put that ish on any thing else that may need to come off (turbo exhaust housing bolts come to mind). Red RTV on everything
