my answer:




In all seriousness, stay away. The quality is absoultely horrible, not to mention those couple of straight/curved pipes are NOT what you're looking for. If you want a turbo, go custom or wait for a kit to be released...

Doesn't look too good. They state specifically in the auction that their kit does NOT contain everything you need & you're still expected to some fabricating of your own to make it work. On top of that I would never buy it unless they could provide actual dyno's proving the performance increase.

and then once you did all that work to make it work, something would break becuase the quality is horrible. Like I said before, get a real kit. If you're going to do something as substantial as converting an N/A engine to FI, you better do it right the first time or be prepared to pay....

You would need an aftermarket engine management system too.
