ok, so i have only gotten started about a few weeks ago, and everyting is causing me problems, to the compressor side of the turbo being to big and hitting the engine block, to the cover on the flywheel covers my oil pan bolts, to a bolt falling into my turbo, to my oil collector having a hole in it ( not finding out till 2 days later when i have a puddle the size of texas on the floor), to me loosing all my bolts i got with the exhasut manifold, to the bolts they gave me for the intercooler ( 1/2 inch, WTF ARE THOSE GOING TO DO?), to my radiator fan being in the way...

i could go on and on...
is this normal for a turbo installation.... granted its not a prefab kit... its one i rigged together....

If its custom...then yes
Have you tried clocking the turbo to see if maybe that would help in the install?
