| Here are a few more pics of my engine pull this weekend. I got held up because I forgot to order the timing gear for the crank (not realizing that the only way to remove it is to cut it in half). So that cost me a couple days. I forgot to take pics of the old dented pan and pickup tube, but you could really see where the oil pan was pressing against the pickup. The pickup was even dented at the end indicating some significant oil starvation. Took me and a friend 7 hours flat from the engine on the stand to the first fireup. Gettin faster ;). Anyway, here come the pics. 
Ready to go back in 
Here are a couple pics of my PCV reroute. 
Here are a couple pics of my custom recirc ports. I used some EGR plates and put brass vacuum fittings on them. 
I also changed my turbo oil feed lines. 
Back in. 
tranny too. 
Done. After figuring out that I plugged in the O2 plug into the #4 coilpack, the car runs PERFECT. I only have a very slight high idle (950rpm) to gripe about, but that is the only thing. Thanks to everyone who helped out and gave me advice. It's still a learning experience, even 6 engine pulls later.
