Search around. That kit would not be any good. I havent even looked at it but its not worth it. Best way is to piece together a kit yourself or have someone do it. I think Im going to start putting some intercooler kits together along with some downpipes and exhaust. Would leave only the tuning to be decided.

that kit could be hit or miss.. could work out well, could be junk. for 900$, it might be well worth it though.

I dont like how it says how it includes a cast manifold, not some cheap stainless steel one that will break. But it obviously is stainless and it even says it lower on the page. I wouldnt trust it one bit.

Kind of surprises me that it comes with t-bolt clamps though. And V-Band. Still though, more likely a miss. Universal Intercooler kit is alright and you could probably make it work. Plan on the turbo not lasting to long though since its a knockoff from China or something.

i bought this kit as a starter kit for my tib, and plan on upgrading down the line. i have been running it for about 3 months with no problems. i started out with 3 psi and i'm pushing 7 now that i have something to tune with. for a chinese turbo it works pretty good but i would not recommend it for high boost. its a good deal for only $900,but i talked him down to $800.

it's a good kit but you need another $1000 of parts just to run it property. it doesn't come with the oil return line, so you will need to purchase that separately and run it to your oil pan. you will need a way to tune it right so you'll need a piggyback or stand alone ecu. new exhaust, fuel pump and injectors. the exhaust manifold and turbo bolt on with no additional parts needed, but you will need some adapters to bolt the i.c. and piping on. the blow off valve doesn't match the flang it comes with so i had to get another one. its a great starter kit but it takes alot to get it up and running.

would you say overall it was worth buying or not?
