Default Question about this build

Someone offered me a good price, little less then 350 for this setup, can you tell me is it good, worth it, and what can hit handle

Turbo T3
chargepiping
feedline
return line
vaccum lines
clamps
blow off
injectors 450cc
vortech 12:1 fmu

Said all it needs is a intercooler to run, I know I don't need it, but this is my first, and I'd like to be able to pull as much out of it when I want to. I'm looking at 5-9 psi out of a setup. BTW he said most stuff was from a DSM and installed by a shop.

anyways should I grab this? sounds good. btw he says no shaft play, no cracks, and doesn't smoke on boost.

You need a turbo manifold also.

Comes with HF manifold, I have a d16z6. I forgot to mention that I'm not buying FMU because he wanted extra 40, and i don't have that money

if you dont have have an extra 40 laying around then how you going to get a chip and IC?

buy the kit then save your money and buy a good IC and crome or uberdata.

350 is an ok price depending on what size turbo? type of bov? and are the oil lines steel braided?

He said it's all DSM, and the injectors are 450cc, also turbo is a T3. I have money just I'm not putting this on till I rebuild another engine. And I'm paying the kid 80$ Plus a broken Nitro rc car. He had an intercooler but it was side mount, and I'd prefer front mount. Reason for rebuilding a new engine, is cause my current one has 300k on it . Still runs fine, but I want a healthy engine before I play with forced. Thanks all.

Bringing back from the dead lol. but the guy was a scammer, I got screwed on the deal sent him money (thought paypal) and car.... turned out after a month didn't get the stuff so I pursued it a little more, found out the kid was 16 and had scammed quite a few people.

Now Civic is sold that last feb and now running the new 06 Cobalt SS Supercharged. Pretty snappy, can't grab traction but still runs 14.2's stock, and now with minor mods stock tires and no launch running 13.7. Now we're turboing my gf's Cavalier so you'll see me on here lots more lol
