Default Is the Rev Hard turbo kit worth the money?

I have a 92 Civic CX Hatch with a 94 JDM B18C. I plan on buying the Rev Hard turbo kit for roughly $2800 + Shipping this coming summer. I know the very basics about turbo's so i was just wondering if this is a good turbo kit that is reliable but yet a nice power plant to eventually put me in the mid/high 12's.(with a few other mods). So basicly is it worth the money? Any input would be great. Thanks!

Rev Hard is definitely one of the best out-of-the-box turbo setups you can get. If this is your first turbo setup, it's a good way to go.

RevHard is a great kit, and one of the less expensive kits.

Steer clear of the sub $2,000 kits, you are just asking for trouble with those.

Revhard is a great kit, custom is better, but revhard is a great beginner kit, I would recomend it to anyone.

RevHard is a very good kit, in a hatch with a GSR engine you should not have any problems getting 12s with it.

Try sponsored section, kyle @ wired speed lab is sellign them for $2750 i beleive. No drag and revhard are not the same, the drag comes with the shitty manifold and the deltagate, both known for boost spiking. Both cost the same, but you have to upgrade on the drag kit, so it comes out to be more expensive. Also the drag piping is bling, but it will eventually rust because it's chrome not polished

There are kits specific to the hybrids. You specify your body style and motor.

Ac will work fine.

How much does it usually cost to have some one install this or is this something that can be done by yourself. Im sure you have to have some tunning done?

sorry to hear you will be wasting a sick engine setup with AFC Hack, get hondata, you will have a hard time making over 300whp with the hack.
