As far as "kits" go, I like Revhard. I like DRAG's charge pipe. All "kit" oil returns suck. GReddy makes the best fitting kit.

It all comes down to whats most important to you. If you have any knowledge at all, I'd suggest putting your own kit together.

EDIT: Spelling

it depends on your goals. there may be a kit thats right for you.

or there may not be

edit - but no matter what your goals are... there is no KIT that has everything you need.

Full - Race indeed, has the least intercooler piping( which is a good thing BTW), thickest strongest manifolds, great options for turbos... and one of the best downpipes you can get..

I'm partial to:

Geoff has researched the components and designed a kit for maximum performance. I would recommend them to anyone who wants the best design at a fair price.
