Ok seeing as no one wants to give nice advice... I currently have just had a turbo kit installed in my car from RPW you can get the kit from a number of companies there in the US or you can have it sent directly to your home address with easy to follow instructions - I won't bog down the thread by going into all the details but the car is very easy to drive which is because we are running a very safe tune on the car we can get more hp out of it but I still have stock clutch and flywheel etc...

for more infor check out the RPW thread and my website attached to my username

as for bodykits I have got a Accolade EVO 8 kit with there GTV02 side skirts and a Hyper rear bar it is not installed on the car as yet but it will happen very soon

for more info about the various parts you are wanting go to the relevent threads and search and read what info there is which is quite extensive

Call RRM and talk to Rob for turbo advice. He will take the time to cover it with you, and it won't cost you an international call.

my take on this:

RRM- only company to offer a turbo for both manual and auto (if you drive auto thats a big factor) made and shipped from CA.

RPW- kit seems great, lacks the amount of customers and road time some RRM kits have, also ships from australia. but i've bought from them before and they have good stuff. plus you save $$ in currency exchange

A2- I know they offer a kit that doesnt include a fuel management system and don't know of anyone who installed it yet. unless you plan on doing some custom work this kit might not be up your alley.


CUSTOM- if you have a good guy to do this or the knowledge to do it yourself thats awesome. you'll save a good amount of $$ if you put in the labor and RPW sells the manifolds now. but you;re car will see plenty of garage time and i'm sure you can see all the other reasons its risky.

Only company that has proven anything serious to me, RRM hands down. I don't count RPW because they have only had their kit for a short amount of time. But you can count the words from Chowetime, RPW has a big selection of options in the kit and that is a positive to choose your preferences!
