Thanks man.. Will be posting initial pics soon. Just got back from autozone and bought my ps fluid and oil. I'm also painting all the charge pipes gloss black. I will beatrting that now. The ones it came with were corroded. So I'm stripping it, reserfacing it, then paint... It's gonna look bling! As for the ac line. Couldn find it on import parts pro. So I'm just going to improvise something.

Oh. Forget to ask. The new injectors didn't come with those injector spacers that it mentions in the instructions. Anyone know what they look like or can I buy them at HD??? Thanks

with the deatchwerk injectors you don't need spacers. They are exact OEM drop ins. The kit may have come with other injectors such as RC that needed a spacer, but the deatchwerk will fit fine

today, going to autostore to get a few bew coupler. the turbonetics couplers have a few holes in them so im replacing them. also getting a new air filter. hopefully i can start with the fuel pump and injectors later! more pics to come soon! BTW, my injectors are green and kinda small, i think those are the 440cc denso injectors that come with the kit? how would i get those spacers i need for them? what do they look like?

Those pipes are looking good

For the spacer in the parts list does it list a measurement of it? If so try to find a washer at said thickness, or just stack a few together and you should be fine.

you cant use washers... the spacers are just under an inch in length and slide around the injector like a sleeve. i can check my garage to see if i have any more lying around but im not sure. it would be more like small pieces of aluminum conduit. if you call denso they might be able to send you some.
i mis lead you with the a/c line. you wont find it at importpartspro but the oilpan spacer is there and ant other parts you need for the vq. you will have to look elsewhere for the a/c line of you want to change it out.

ok. i think i may have those actually, do they look like alluminum sleeves. they kinda slide on half way on the bottom of the injector? and they kinda look like a top hat..

I just looked up the install, they aren't spacers, I know some Injectors are talled and need spacers to lift the fuel rail up. These are adapters so your right, washers wouldn't work. To OP those aluminum "top hat" pieces would seem right. The manual shows a 2 tiered piece that goes onto the top of the injector (part into the fuel rail).
