Default B series turbo kit - ebay - NOT ssac - any good???

Ok.... i want to turbo my car, found this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...ZWDVW

i know most ebay kits suck.... but this one seems legit - the manifold is cast iron, not SSAC, it has a turbonetics turbo and wastegate (sounds better than "XS power", but probably not as good as garrett), intercooler and piping can't be the best, but those can't really "break", BOV probably sounds like poop, but overall it doesn't sound like a bad deal to me.... what do you guys think? anyone have one or know anyone that does? appreciate it.

looks good turbonetics is a decent brand pretty much the things that can possibly break or damage your motor are made by a respected company so i cant really see where u can go wrong

vafc ummmmmm no that would be the worst thing about the kit get hondadata or crome or urbadata best tunning out there for a HONDA that kit looks like a really good kit and isnt to bad for the price get some 450 injectors and fuel pump and urbadata and you will be set!

I agree with uberdata...hell, with the chip, ostrich and ecu, it's nearly the same amount as a vafc, but you get more functionality...no question imo, and it's what i'll be doing once i get my jrsc

yeah, i don't really see any reason not to get it other than the fact that i haven't ever heard of anyone else that has one.... someone else buy it and tell us all if its any good

lol decent kit, but BEWARE just because it has TURBONETICS on it DOESN'T mean that it IS made by TURBONETICS! Alot of crap is being stamped on products these days on ebay! Think about it and becareful! But if you really need it and really desperate, go for it!!
