I wouldn't buy it. Who knows what the quality on the goods is and what kind of things are needed as well as what they say (ie. what about tuning?).

 

yeah, quality coming off from ebay is a little questioniable these days. I remember the ebay glory days when someone wanted to sell something of use, and people bid on it to win. Those days are gone........so sad so sad

 

it's far from a complete kit... nothing for fuel management in there. you also need to figure out the downpipe and exhaust manifold issues.

 

Its a universal starter kit. I bet you would find the same kit with all the same parts for a civic, cobalt, neon, etc. on ebay too. Its one of those knock off companies that throw one of everything they sell together and call it a kit when its just a bunch of universal parts. Notice how the intercooler piping is in a bunch of prebent pieces. This kit is not made for a specific car.

I bet the RRM manifold with a T3/T4 flange would work for it though...?

 

ya your right. its a universal kit thats why it says customize your own manifold.

 

don't buy it. that kit

 

I wouldn't buy it. Plus I'm sure that kit won't look as nice when it comes in the mail.

 

horrilble looking kit. NO

 

It's over-priced! and it'll only get you half of the way you'll need to be...

 

Don't buy it. eBay is a crap shoot in terms of quality.

 

I'm with everybody. Don't buy. Ebay turbos are the worst you can get for the bang. Look around some DSM forums, and pick up a used turbo. or maybe an evo turbo for cheap, and make your own kit. You will be much happier that way.

Or if you have the money, call RRM

 

Agreed, end of discussion. I garauntee it's one of those ebay turboes that has no markings on it and will fall apart after a while. And I doubt you could use any of those pipes, unless you had them rebent, which would make the point of having the pipes in the kit pointless. Plus you could find that exact same ebay turbo for super cheap from someone else.
