i wouldn't buy any kits of ebay the question to ask yourself is do you want a reliable kit or a non realiable kit as in do you want it all to last because ebay will not last you that long

you gotta pay to play...and paying 900 bucks for a turbo kit and exhaust is rediculious.....i think I put that much money into my manifold and turbo alone....buy cheaply made stuff and you'll learn....

yeah that turbo setup isnt complete AT ALL...no oil lines or fittings,downpipe,FUEL CONTROL,plus those ebay wastegates seem to have problems leaking. good rule of thumb, if its not garrett or another name brand turbo its probably ****. intercooler piping looks alright but id use less couplers.
