  My advice:  don't.
  Two days is not nearly enough time to properly install and de-bug a =
turbo installation.  Two weeks may not be enough time unless the =
installers are experienced.
   If you're gonna' do it....do it right.  Thrashing under an =
unreasonable deadline is a sure way to screw something up.

    How hard is it to change the headgasket, put a turbo, and convert to =
digi
    1 on a 1.8 16v scirocco?  I have a place to do it with the tools to =
do it
    with.  I basically need a few pointers to speed things up.  I have a
    somewhat installation guide from ATP web site but its only a =
reference
    since its for installing a turbo into a 8v car.  I'm going to be =
using an
    g60 headgasket  with a new timing belt and seals. I have about two =
days
    to do this in a shop in mid February so I have to work fast.  I have =
a
    repair manual but its a little confusing on the timing belt removal. =
 Can
    someone give  me some advice.
