Matt and I will get with Steve to create a small writeup on things like the clocking to add to the kit when shipped. Some things you take for granted like people that will be installing turbos would know about clocking. But that happens when you do this day in day out. You forget others are doing this for the first time. What we think is known is only known to us from experience.

I can say this, I have seen many turbo kits before for many platforms. Instructions are always lacking, parts half there, things not assembled fully. The 3SX kit is fairly assembled, complete with feeds and returns assembled and ready to go sans the clocking. To me that's pretty cool.

Any other questions about the kit don't hesitate to ask either here or email/call us at the shop
This is not the first time my friend (mechanic) clocks a turbo, but first time installing the 3sx kit. This is the first time he clocks a turbo with a welded pin in the compressor. He installed the IPS kit with the MHI E16G and it did not have this back pin and said that it was easier! Not trying to start a war here just telling 3sx performance what we experienced and where it can improve.
