Default trying to get started

hey everyone im new to the turbo scene and just trying to get stared. im not trying to make huge power just trying to learn, well let me cut to the chase im looking at getting this kit to start out and what not to me it seems like all i would need would be an intercooler, bov, injectors, hondata (i know its not cheap but to me its the best and iv used it b4) wideband, and probably a boost controller please let me know what you think, i dont want to get screwed over i hear enough bad things about ebay stuff i dont want this to be the same thing.
heres the link http://tunertoys.zoovy.com/pro....html

You can most likely get a better deal somewhere else, for 1300 and you still need all the parts you just mention you could get a better turbo set-up

That kit comes with a REALLY TINY turbo, a rising rate FPR and some way of blinding the MAP sensor. It doesn't have an intercooler. If you get that kit you won't add much power and you will be at risk of blowing your engine. If you ever decide to upgrade the only thing you can keep is the manifold, but even the manifold will limit you greatly.
