and one more question, is this a completely bolt on kits or what? I saw the kits on ks website with a bunch of clamps and pipes, it looks totally not "bolt on" IMO.

It's as bolt on as any other turbo kit except for the piping, you have to measure and cut it to your needs and may need some extra unless they have changed it since I got mine and gave you more pipe.

I only needed a foot or so.

Its as close to a custom kit you can get for a great price especially since they give you hondata with it.

I'm happy with mine but if given the chance to do it all over with what I know now I would have gone custom.

its the best kit for the money by far and the hondata is the way to go. the bov sucks and the piping is fun but other than that the kit is great, cutting the piping isnt that bad because you get to line it up the way that you want.

Does kit not come with a fuel pump? or did u just forget to mention that. Seems like a geat buy for that price especially since u get hondata also. From what i hear people say replace the BOV, and cuttign the piping isnt bad. Like someone said you can cut it to how u want it.

So the kit comes with hondata, and what else is needed to bolt it on?
Injectors, Fuel Pump? Anything else?

I think it's a good kit for the money.

Also what kind of intercooler comes along with the kit ?

You just need larger injectors. A fuel pump would be a good idea, but not really neccessary. I think the intercooler is a HKS core with MaxRev end tanks. Supposed to be pretty nice.

That's even better, I guess RC 310cc would work good with that setup?
I still can't believe that only few people are sporting this kit.
Seems like a bang for the buck.

Injectors and an in tank fuel pump would be a good idea... The intercooler is an HKS core with MaxRev end tanks.

Go for RC 440's, 310 is too small.

I think most people were scared away by the DIY piping. lol

I chose the AEM as well, it's great but a little pricey TurboHonda94 did a badass job with my DIY piping, he spray painted it once it was put together and it turned out really well.

i bought the Maxrev B series kit, but never used it. now it's for sale.
i never got the Maxrev BOV and i sold the 2.5" downpipe, but everything else is there and brand new.

i think it's a good kit for the $$. it doesn't come with a fuel pump or injectors, but it's not hard to find good deals on some quality fuel parts to complete the system.
