So I ordered a s256 turbo kit from emspowered almost 3 months ago and I finally have something to show
 I'm still waiting on 1 more box to be delivered but the turbo, downpipe, and a few other goodies were delivered today.

Turbo kit is finally installed.
   Also relocated my battery to the trunk.  A couple thoughts for those of you thinking about buying this kit. I ended up buying some slim fans and had them mounted on the front side of the radiator to give me more space...one of the fans would have had to been removed in order to fit the wastegate. A LARGE portion of your tranny case needs to be removed in order to get the compressor housing to clear it. In my case the wastegate pipe could have had a bigger bend in it because it hardly offered any clearance to bolt up the downpipe to the turbo. Also, I believe in the description for this kit it says you can use your stock heat shield, but in my case it wont work. Overall I love the looks of the kit. I had my manifold, downpipe, and screamer pipe ceramic coated black and am happy with the results. Tried to install my new HKS ssqv 3 but was getting compressor surge...I think I need to get a new flange because it was fitment wasn't the greatest. Here are some other small goodies a got around the same time as the kit.  AEM ems, cams, and cam gears hopefully coming the start of next year. I have to save my pennies until then
