it really doesn't look that complicated to install. You pull the old turbo and exhaust manifold, intake and surrounding hoses. Reconnect new exhaust manifold and turbo with supplied oil lines, etc... Put new intake and intercooler in, new injectors, new fuel pump, relocate fuel filter by coolant resovoir, and isn't that it? Surely I'm missing something.
I know that getting to the old turbo isn't exactly easy, but besides that isn't it all pretty much just bolt and go besides new ECU map?

that's the bulk of it yes, but >>
if your car has more than 50k miles on it or you live in the northeast -- everything is heat cycled or rusted (manifold studs) and breaks when you touch it.
