its a ebay kit filled with chinese made parts. ive used them before. if you do decide to buy it have the turbo internals replaced with better quality parts.

depending on your car there maybe a complete bolt on kit available. you will have to search. a quality turbo kit can cost 2500.00 and up. your best bet it to piece together your own kit with quality used parts. most likely your going to have to custom make your boost pipes as there are not many companies out there making vehicle specific boost/intercooler piping.

Ya stay away from that crap. totally reminded me of ebay when i first saw it. Piecing together your own kit will get you more power and it will be more reliable (as long as you get some quality parts). not sure what your going to turbo but i've heard that rev hard makes a half decent kit and there is also treadstone performance (not sure if its a quality kit though). like Nigel mcdonald said you get what you pay for look around and see what other people are using and get an idea of what would work best for your set-up. Best to save up some money and get something that lasts apposed to 1000$ dollars into only to have it pile up in 3000 miles
