Anybody with the Apex-I RX6 Turbo kit?

I'm in the process of buying this kit and watned to know who else has the kit on their Evo. I wanted to know how reliable the kit is and what kind of powerband it puts out. Any dynocharts and opinions will help. I did a search and wasnt able to find much information. I know Apex makes a good product but I really wanted to know from someone that has the kit installed. THanks

Dont waste the time or money with Apex. Go Buschur or AMS.

Overpriced - Seriously man, if you don't know the answers to the questions you asked how could you consider it even if the name is well-known. I would say ams, rnr or greddy. peace

Go with one of the kits these guys mentioned. Buschur looks nice.

Have a mate with an evo 6 running that kit, excellent response and big power on the turbocharger but the manifold sucks.. Cracked it 5 times in less than a year.. THe material is just thin.. I would go with the AMS or Buschur anytime although I have never had cracking on the Greddy T67 kit on my 6 for 3 years now..

If I recall, doesnt the sparco Evo run this turbo kit and is making around 500hp? Kinda pricey though, but if you got the loot then go for it. By the way, if you do get it make sure you post up a review.

You should spend that money on Buschur, AMS, or RNR kits IMO.

Dude, you should go with.....what ever the hell you want to go with. Are they paying for it? I didn't think so. I know they are opinions, but the fact of the matter is, Apex has put out some damn good products and there is NO reason for you not to buy it.

GO FOR IT!!!!!

If you want a truly good turbo kit, I would call TurboTrix.

Ahh thanks so much for the opinions. I know its kinda pricey but I figured if Apex makes it - it must be great. It will not have any fittment issues - i wont have to worry about missing parts, and best part of all it will be reliable. Im debating on this or AMS. Not sure yet. Thanks everyone

I've delt with AMS before, they are a company that knows what there doing, after researching for MONTHS i have concluded that i would not go with anything else.

Well the reason why i am considering Apex is because from what i've "heard" -it produces a nice solid powerband. I want 370-380whp daily driver that makes power till redline. And has a very nice spool. It really sucks just looking and reading about the kits - and not have "real" testimonials from people. That's why I made this thread. so i can hear from owners.
