Default Thinking of getting this, input please

I see this on Ebay and it looks good. It says 8.3 psi and looks quality to me.

I have a 1998 DX Coupe 5 speed.

Is this thing gonna get me into the high 14's reliably.

What would you estimate on wheel Hp and acceleration times be?

Any input appreciated.

thanks,

Dan

It doesn't look like crap to me. It's mostly stainless and has an HKS BOV. As long as the intercooler doesn't crack I think it would work good, I just have no experience with a Turbo Honda to determine what it would give me in HP an 1/4 mile times.

Thanks

This isn't an ssautochrome kit though, it looks a little better.
