Shouldnt be that hard.

Use Sierra 1.8 CVH engine mounts.

Obv custom boost and exhaust piping to be done, but thats not hard.

not hard at all,
as said use 18 cvh mounts from a seeira,

then bolt the turbo lmo in, fabricate a down pipe and boos pipes,

i reckon u should buy my rs turbo of me (its an xr with a turbo engine, )

and use that for allthe paarts you need !! lol


good luck
