It looks like a nice version of a junkyard turbo setup...for 2600 you would be better off piecing one together.

piece it together, you will be alot happier in the long run. I almost made this mistake, and bought the greddy kit. Not knocking greddy but I built a full custom setup w/hondata and only overshot the greddy kit budget by $65.
The only part I was pissed about was the first piece I bought was the Greddy intercooler $800. I could of bought a precision intercooler and saved about $200.

Few months ago ran into a Greddy GSR w/hondata. Honestly didn't know he was boosted until he caught up and told me

would i be better off building my own? i know, 2600 sounded too good to be true. i have only about 2600 to spend to mod my car. maybe i should just go NA and build my motor. or maybe look into SC.
