I'm still undecided on what turbo I'm going to run. I checked all clearanced numerous times when everything was bolted in. Then, I mic'd it when the crank was out numerous times, then I checked everything a few more times once it was all bolted again for end play. Everything fell within factory so I think I'll be good. I honestly didn't search for how to rebuild, I just printed out the FSM and went to work. The car IS going to be daily driver- it's the only car I have/ can afford. I was originally going to simply swap out the headgasket but when half the motor was disassembled, I figured that I may as well rebuild it. I've been building it since November and every part has been installed with cash (why it took so long). As for horsepower...I do not want to worry about my motor being able to handle what I throw at it....ever. I'd be quite pleased just running 12's. I am going to use the t25 until everything is broken in AND until I can afford a better turbo setup.
