Default help on turbo kit

i have been looking over the forum for over a year but have only registerd here today. i have decided to go turbo and this kit caught my eye. i would like any feed back on either product quality, this vendor, pricing anything at all would be very heplful.

Here it goes.
$2825 Shipped.

Includes
-PeakBoost Stainless Steel equal length exhaust manifold made of 304L 8 gauge stainless (Lifetime warranty)
-Garrett T3/TO4E turbocharger
-Tial 38mm wastegate
-PWR 24x6x3.5 Intercooler (2.5" inlet and outlet)mounts directly to factory bumper support
-Tial blow off valve
-12inch "Slimline" pusher radiator fan
-Vortech FMU
-fully TIG welded complete 3 peice 2.5" charge piping (no modifications necessary)
-3inch downpipe with stainless flex section and wastegate dumptube.
-Stainless oil feed (-4) and oil drain (-10) lines (featuring earls fittings.)
-Weldless oil drain line
-All necessary couplings
-Strong T-Bolt hose clamps
-all necessary gaskets

No FMU deduct $65 dollars. This is $125 off Cheapturbo.com's normal price and what most of you have been paying.

Fuel System Upgrade
RC 440, 550
Hondata s200B
Walbro 255lph Fuel pump
$765 Shipped

650 and 750 add $50. Includes Clips if needed

i would most likely get the fuel upgrade if i were to purchase the kit. thanks for reading.

no this is not an ad. i was wondering if anyone is running a peakboost kit or the PeakBoost Stainless Steel equal length exhaust manifold. this is going on a stock b16 daily driver looking to run 6-7psi. also i tried calling wiredspeedlab and was on hold for over 20 min before talking to anyone. so any personal experience with them regarding to customer service would be appreciated. thanks for responding.

I think you are talking about the REALLY ghetto setups they have there,if you stick around there a litle you will gain more knowledge on turbos and see all the really cool setups on there.

who says you have to use used parts?you just buy new parts separatly using your own choice of fuel management and it usually comes out cheaper that way and the experience is also very rewarding.

I am sorry,but if you are gonna spend 3500,I would spend it on building my motor internally for NA application which would be faster than a kit.

But this aint about me,its about you,i just felt likei had to tell you about homemadeturbo.com so maybe you would rock hm turbo.

I haven't dealt with wirespeedlab but i have dealt with cheap-turbo.com who are the makers of the peakboost kit. They have good customer service. Wirespeedlab sells the kits for cheaper because they are a mass distributor and very well recommended by cheap-turbo.com. Their manifolds have lifetime warrenty on them. Only one was sent back but not for a repair only to show them the stength of their manifolds, the guy hit a tree head on and the manifold was barely messed up.

We are basically CheapTurbo.coms distributor for the kit which is why we can get it for you cheaper than normal. Ken and WSL service is always great.

As for being on hold for 20 minutes?? WHEN lol.. Anything ever happens like that please send me a pm cause i know for a fact i wouldn't have put you on hold for 20 minutes let alone not answer for 20 minutes...

Idda got ripped !
