cheap fast reliable

choose two

if its cheap and fast, it won't be reliable
if its cheap and reliable, it won't be fast
if its fast and reliable, it won't be cheap

i say wait and save till you can get a real kit and do things right the first time

good luck

That should work out well for you, just make sure you get the intercooler!

Also investing in some real EMS will prolong your reliabality.

if your looking at $1500, the greddy kit is fine. you can make 225+whp with that kit and that motor.
