Ok. I've been Installing a Ted's engine in my 97 and with the exception of a punch list it Runs nicely with no codes. It was 2 years ago when I dismantled everything. Is there a donut gasket that goes between the turbo and the downpipe? Thanks in advance and have taken some pics throughout, and will post them when truck drives. Sorry for Newbie ? I just don't remember one there. Hitting punch list now. Very excited about not having to drive my Colorado ever again.
 
Nope, make sure everything is clean and even. Watch for rust chips on the V.

I've had it leak if the V clamp is not tight. I will lift on the down pipe with a bar or jack to assure a tight even seal to the turbo while installing the clamp. This usually prevents leaks.
 
Thanks ,Im good with the crossover donuts and tightened the turbo clamp and it sealed. I was expecting a ses light cause the ip hasn't been timed. Thanks
