Pretty good price. If that includes all the bells and whistles including installation, you'd be set. Why this was in Audio I don't know *drop kicks to "Other Cars"*

If this kit includes everything that you need to complete the install then yeah it's a fair price if the kit is new. Just make sure it has the proper manifold, and a decent fuel management system. For that price i'm assuming it will come with a FMU and pump upgrade, which is good for lower boost turbo kits. Not the best but decent nonetheless.

Have the store give you a full list of parts, that should give you a much better idea. Make sure you get everything IN WRITING....

I have seen people being screwed by shops too many times

Good call Lan. Post up that list and we'll "review" it.
