This is more amusing really than anything else. Anyway, figured I'd pass this along to anyone else looking for a good laugh.
The description:
"PROFESSIONAL INSTALL ONLY - YOU WILL NEED A FABRICATOR THAT CAN WELD BEND PIPING AND INSTALL FUEL MANAGMENT SYSTEM. YOU WILL HAVE TO SUPPLY SOME NUTS AND BOLTS AND EXPECT TO SPEND 10-15 HOURS TO INSTALL THIS KIT
IF YOUR MECHAINC CHARGES 60.00 PER HOUR ITS GOING TO COST ANY WHERE FROM $600.00-$900.00
EXPECT TO SPEND $200.00-$450.00 ON DYNO TIME AND ENGINE TUNING BY A PROFESSIONAL
DO NOT BUY IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE BUYING! READ CAREFULLY!
THE TITLE STATES YOUR CARS NAME BUT DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL FIT YOUR CAR EXACTLY
I HAVE GOTTEN QUESTIONS WILL THIS FIT?
ONLY IF YOU MODIFY YOUR CAR TO FIT THIS TURBO IT WILL FIT.
USE SOME CREATIVE THINKIN AND WORK WITH YOUR MECHANIC OR INSTALL TO CREATE A PLAN TO TURBO YOUR CAR

its nothing more than just a kit with a bunch of universal parts and a cheap-o turbo
this isn't a turbo "kit" more of a fabrictor's kit, and an incomplete one at that. you'd still be looking at easily over $2000 to get the turbo in, since you would need custom manifolds and intake and LABOR.

Word.
Building turbo manifolds for this chassis sucks. Ask me how I know
Besides that, I have done a rear mount turbo that performs so well, I never finished the front mount turbo setup. Do that, be surprised and happy.
