should be around a hundred bucks if you get the turbo kit/ gaskets and new bolts/ and the fitting, it looks like a T fitting. they recommend putting new turbo mounting bolts in because of the heat and all

It's not difficult. Are you doing this yourself? Make sure you have a comfortable blanket to lay on the engine cause you'll need to lay on top of it to work back there, and make sure you have a good combination of extensions and swivel sockets because those turbo bolts can be a PITA to get at. Once you find them it's just a matter of having the right combo of swivel/extensions and it's out. Not too difficult at all on these actually.

TBC is the trailer brake controller

It means either A you have a bad ground on your trailer. Or B your cable on your trailer is too short and causing it to pull out of the plug or C you have a short in the factory trailer harness wiring or the plug is gunked up
