Default Full-race turbo kit?

Ive been looking at turbo kits for my 98 gsr. I dont know if i should get the full-race kit or just piece together my own kit. What do you guys think?

Is it just me or is Chik-Fil-A the best fast food sandwich hands down?

Easily...

Buying the kit will be more expensive, but the convenience and the luxury of knowing everything will install with as few hickups as possible make it worth it.

If you can afford it, go with the kit.

im in a good mood today.

you can piece together a kit, it can go either way in price, if you buy good used parts or not, but you cant go wrong with the fr kit,

im running the pro street stage 3 kit. only thing i changed was the intercooler piping, i did some different stuff.

There are a lot of other quality turbo setups for a lot less money. Also, putting your own setup together allows for you to tailor it to your own needs AND you'll learn a lot in the process

This very true. I've learn a lot by just putting together a turbo kit. But if I can redo it, I'll rather buy a new kit. Buying use parts are just going to have problems. Maybe bad seller, shaft play etc etc... That happen to me also...

full-race,peakboost, SLS, etc... They are all great, it's just up to you if which name do you like more.. Also look for lifetime guarantee against any cracking or defects...

I would recommend SLS...they've always had good stuff and they're great guys. They offer a pretty decent kit for a great price.

Also, building your own setup doesn't have to mean used parts...i've always built my own setups and i'm running all new stuff. Just shop around The Sponsor's Marketplace and you'll find a lot of great deals

ive never bought an actual kit and ive always pieced my kit together. but if you are looking to not worry about what fits where and what you're missing then full-race isnt a bad choice

I would take a look at AFIs stuff. Arizona forced induction has a real quaity kit but for a little bit cheaper price just b/c it doesnt say "full-race". I believe you can get their stuff here... http://www.tunerheadquarters.com/

Give me a call @ 602-437-2101 or hit me up on AIM @ Full_Race_Mario.

You can buy one of our complete kits OR a partial kit if you want to do your own charge pipes or already have a FMIC, Etc. I can tailor any of our kits for your power goals and your driving needs as well as let you know what else is required. Most of my customers enjoy a one-stop-shopping experience!
