It's a great kit and $1600 isn't bad for a kit. Sure you can piece one together, but used parts are used parts. I have pieced a kit together for my old eclipse and it ran and ran. Now i would rather not hassle with it. Compared to turbonetics, boostlogic manic tech racing, this is a decent price. I would spend the money to get a tial waste gate though.

yeah i would spend the extra money and get some of the name brand pieces like Turbo and WG, just in case.... i wouldnt want my wg to fail and overboost or my cheap turbo to start leaking right away or blow up lol

i plan on doing it on a 1 or 2J . . . .
the NA-Ts still look pretty clean though, is there a way to switch that manifold to where the manifold sits in the font of the engine?
