Thanks for posting this - I haven't put together a turbo before so the amount of hoses is daunting. Using the diagrams is nice, but they are more confusing to me because only part of the hoses are shown in each. These detailed pictures are really useful.
My mechanic buddy helped put together the long block but left me to connect everything on the topside of the block - it builds character.

This is your car now? Sweet! I was looking at this a few months back, but the distance to SoCal was too much.
Good luck and thanks for saving another leggy!
