Good buy or not??
 
Ok today i bought a turbo kit for $1250. Its basically an ssautochrome kit with some changed out and extra parts. Instead of the knock off bov and wastegate it comes with a TurboXS bov and Tial 38 mm wastegate. The extra parts include a chipped p28 that reads boost, 550 RC injectors, and autometer boost and air/fuel ratio gauges. Also i didnt pay him the full $1250, im paying it off in payments. So just wanted to know if this is some what a good buy?

Get a better manifold and hopefully you are in the happy %50 whose SS turbo works great.Sounds alright though.

:(

yes you will want to get a new chip with a good basemap from xeno before tuning, or you can buy a burner and just reburn it with a bin from someone here. have you looked through any of the FI stickies? all of this is covered in there

Does it have a black tag or a square one?
