I can't help but agree. It's hard to learn about this kind of stuff if you dont get your hands dirty. And it's not like he can mess that much up by swapping the turbo out, especially if he was paying attention to what he's doing and he has researched it.
But i do understand the feeling of just wanting it done right the first time.
I agree. There's not a whole lot to research either on this. But I always try to do my research on things before I try jumping into it. Just like for about 3 weeks now I've been researching about the FMU I'm going to install on my car soon. Everyone keeps saying its easy but I'm still confused on it. All I can do is read and try or have someone help me that has done it. Still want to see how they do it so I can do it myself if there's a next time. The turbo swaps I did myself, but I wouldn't recommend everybody to do it. I like cars and like working on them and figuring things out. Its not something I want to do everyday but I atleast want to know about the car I'm driving just in case. I can't do everything on these cars but I'm willing to learn. Just like I didn't know how to take stock springs off and put lower springs on. I watched and will attempt to do it next time I have to do it if ever lol but I still want to try. I never said he should do it himself and take it to no one. I also suggested he could take it to someone, watch how they did it and maybe try it himself the next time. I think I gave about 3 options and many opinions, none negative... just suggestions.
