i would use the turbo, and probably the intercooler piping, intercooler, and the blow off valve. Most poeple have had problems with the manifolds cracking/breaking, and most people will tell you the turbo's are ****. I am running on of their turbo's and it has over 7000 miles on it already, just make sure you use an oil restricter on it.

For $300 i might do it, but not on my daily...XS Power kits are notoriously shitty and i would recommend against using it

Just my 02 cents. I started off one of ther kits. then i upgraded peace buy peace. but for 300 bucks. wosts case you can see the pipe and intercooler and get some money back. so im my eyes hell with it. just 300 bucks.
