I started out with a DRAG kit. All I have left is the piping, and that is going to get modified. I havent even put it on the car

then you would fall in the first choice right? i agree not with the none of the above part but with the first choice a custom kit is the best way

you can make it cheaper but your going to pay for it in the long run. if you cant afford to drop all the cash at once, just slowly peice it together. I wouldnt recomend going half *** on this. It is going to end up costing me more than a kit probably. but you can do it cheaper through sources like ebay and such.

hes righta custom kit might cost more only because all the good parts cost more but look up that site or http://www.thepartstrader.com and that site has alot of stuff you can get that used but still good
good luck and let us know what u did.

not to start an arguement, but a lot of the guys that say they go custom kits use pieces from different turbo kits and find the other parts used... drag, revhard, f-max, etc... so is this REALLY custom? hehe

The only parts I used from a *kit* were the Drag piping and FMIC. I consider what I did custom.

Custom route:
It's being built starting from a Max-Rev manifold, turbo, and DP and should be installed by the end of the year.
Once that is working I'm switching the turbo and boost control out for a special project I'm working on.
