I picked Rev Hard.
I went GReddy, cause I wanted it legal, plus I have a D16Z6. So it seemed to be my best option. I had to stay sleeper to, so no IC. Other wise APEXi.
I see more Drag kits than any. I also hear shops talk sht about Drag too. Normally about their IC piping and quite BOV's. I believe the BOV from them is a Blitz.
My shop prefers Rev Hard if you're going all out power, or GReddy to stay legal and to keep the price down.

There's nothing wrong with Drag piping except that it's chrome which soaks up and holds heat. The BOV is an HKS actually, not Blitz. I would pick Revhard if I was going with a kit, but for all intents and purposes it should yield the same results as a Drag.

Re: B18C1 Turbo of choice: POLL (RyanAutry)
i chose revhard. im using the revhard manifold w/ a 62-1 w/ stage 5 back wheel. i made 498 hp@23psi on a slipping clutch. it slipped up top so it may or may not be accurate but at 24 psi it slipped at 7k. it seems to flow and work pretty good. no cracking issues or anything like the drag manifolds.

Re: B18C1 Turbo of choice: POLL (Elite Hatch)
I definitely am liking the kit.. is there anything that it needs to be complete and ready to bolt on.
Any chance that by spring, there might be a sale on it??

go custom youll be ahead in the long run. Give it a whole and the boost gauge will climb high enough that youll get some drawbacks from a kit. I for one dont like any t3/t4 hybrid turbo. i jsut jump right into something larger. Another thing is the piping is too small and most use a FMU which is definantly not the best way.
