well if you are going to upgrade your turbo you are going to be flipping a shinny penny anyways. The AMS kit is the most COMPLETE kit out there. I guess it is just a matter of choice. I live like an hour away from AMS and if you have ever visited their shop you know where the extra grand goes. QUALITY! It is second to none there. Im sure Bushur has quality too but it was just a personal choice that i went with ams. I guess you cant go wrong with either, they are the top 2 in et's

for some reason, no offense i think this is a little kid, or someone who is just bench modding.

anyways, your going to need to go bigger than 880cc injectors. 1000cc or so, depends on what your goals are.

also, what is your goal with this car. if you plan on doing the 1/4 mile, track car you most likely want to go with a 2.0 so you can rev the **** out of it.

if your making this for a freeway monster or other things, the 2.3 would be my choice.

good luck, i would like to see some pics of your car now, and of course keep us informed as you order and install this list of all the best parts most of us dream about having.

I agree with you monies41. The Evo community is very lucky to have BOTH of these shops at our disposal. I also agree that having AMS closer would help you to make the choice. That's exactly why I'm saying that if you're buying a kit from either tuner and the quality is the same, Why would you pay $1000 more. That's my only point. Both companys only sell quality parts.

The BR 35R with the CAST Manifold has hit 140MPH, enough said, $1,000 Cheaper.

a 37r with the stock 2.0l isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. I see full boost right around 5k rpms (yes laggier then the stock turbo but no where near full power at 7k rpms) I drive mine everyday on pump/alky and I can't complain, i'm sure with a 2.3l the lag would be significantly reduced, but until then a stock 2.0l and a 37r is definitely streetable without a doubt.

Spend the time to think out the complete build before jumping in. 880's won't get the job done if you're going to try to max the turbo. 1000's won't even get the job done. Plan your work, then work your plan. Use the extra $1000 for a set of tires or something.

+2, AMS is awesome but the damage on the checkbook is hard to justify. Buschur is where my money will go.
