Yeah the 50trim with meth would be a monster.. that is what I am leaning towards unless SLS shows some numbers on that borg warner..the AMS is just so damn expensive.
I feel ya...3 grand for a header, turbo and gate. I know some more parts com with it but thats the big stuff. I might be the ginny pig for the S256 if something doesnt happen in 6 months.
whatever your reason for not going with Buschur, i think will cost you money, power and solid reliability. But i,m sure your reason is very important to you so sorry for whatever is going on beween you guys and good luck with the build.

right Its nothing against buschur. I just don't really like their parts. the manifold while serving its purpose is ugly to me and if I am gonna spend that kinda dough on a turbo kit i atleast want it to look good.

I know man. I am about to say screw it and just get the kit and meth. I mean its got to make good power right... so hell with it If AMS doesnt come up with another group buy pretty soon. Im just gonna see what a s256 can do.

right. but I weld for a living so i can always make one that matches or repair mine. The 3065 bushur kit is awesome.. but I just wanna do something diff than everyone else.
S256 kit...the thread got locked. Here is a link

You will probably have to call VIP. Also, you might as well call SLS too. Get as much info as possible from from both companys. I know their is a few diffrent selections of A/Rs on the exhasut side. Are the s200 and s256 the same?
Im not really sure.More info here http://www.hondamarketplace.com/zerorss?t=1817089

No there are other turbos in the s200 line. I have a friend that is a diesel tech and he says that borg warner turbos are by far the best turbos made. He said garretts are great but borg warners are just bulletproof.
