the title itself and products they're selling does not make sense. All of those things cannot cost only $300 unless they were broken before they even got to your door.

Lay off the ebay for a while, I think you're getting sick.

The blow off valve has the same exterior shape as the HKS SSQV but I would like to see the inside. I dont think HKS paints their BOV either. The piping is crush bent and is only 2.5" in diameter. The inlet and outlet of the intercooler is 3". Cant use that with out a reducer coupler which I think is not a good idea on a turbo application. It should be 3" for the piping. The intercooler looks ok. A manual boost controller is a manual boost controller.
