EM USA racing turbo kit help.
Has any bought and installed this turbo kit? Is it reliable? Saw it on Amazon for $1,200, price is too good to be true!

If its too good to be true....It probably is.
There is no way in hell its a good setup. A quality turbo alone will cost you no less than $500 new, then add a manifold, downpipe, intercooler piping, intercooler, couplers, wastegate, etc...and you soon realize that the price is impossible unless every part is like $40. Its made-in-china, soldered-together, rip-off garbage

Re: EM USA racing turbo kit help.
You can pick up the majority of parts pre-owned and save a good amount of money that way... a lot of reputable sellers sell quality stuff in the marketplace

^^that's how i put my first setup together. After tuning and a clutch, the whole setup cost me just shy of $3000 and it was pretty basic.
