Icon2 Evans Tuning T4 Bushing Street Kit

Hey all,

Searching for a turbo kit for my 01 GSR (stock setup). Was looking at a full race kit when I stumbled onto Jeff Evan's site (www.evans-tuning.com) for those who don't know. I discovered that he sells his own kits. I was wondering if anyone has used or is using one of these kits? To me it seems worth the price. Just looking for some feed back. Link below to detailed list of what the kit includes. Thanks.

We decided to stop selling these about a year ago. Charge piping fitment was not perfect between different cars, so we choose not to continue to sell them. The kits were supposed to be removed from our site, but apparently our web admin did not remove them. Sorry for the confusion.

I think I'd end up spending more money then I would like to if I built my own kit and/or miss pieces/parts that would come with a complete kit. I'm looking to spend like no more then $4k on the setup, cuz I'd still need to get injectors, engine management, fuel pump, oil catch can, exhaust, etc. Then after all that get it tuned by Mr. Evans.

Agreed. I was looking at there B Series Ramhorn Turbo Kit. Looks like its put together well and I love that I can customize it to my needs. Link to kit below:

http://www.synapseturbo.com/mm5/merc...=turbokithonda

Can anyone else vouch for these kits?

You can't go wrong with Evans or Mike @ Synapse. Both are excellent to deal with and have great parts that will work.

My money goes to Evans because he has his own support forum and has helped my customers and I countless times.

think a .63 trim is good for a 300hp stock gsr engine daily driver? Looking for good midrange power.

upgrade to a 30r & you'll enjoy the fast spool, or a disco potato 28r which will also meet your goals & spool extremely fast & tons of fun for the street.
I've always been a fan of the bb turbos for a street car, it's worth the extra few beans.

You could check out AFI (Arizona Forced Induction) I have heard nothing but good about these kits if thats what your in the market for. Complete kits I believe last I saw was ~2500 or so. Give you tons of options for upgrading turbo IC etc. Check in the For Sale section in Forced Induction Sponsors market.
