Default What turbo kit to get?

I am about the get my 1st Turbo kit for my EG hatch with a B16. I just wanted to know what would be the best kit for a daily driver? (dont care about the cost)

i love my modified drag kit...

the turbo's too ******* big, so i stay out of boost under daily conditions and for me that means better gas mileage

The Greddy kit is a decent and nicely priced kit.

For someone doing it themselves without any help I would definately say grab a pre fab kit. I like my Greddy. It does just fine for the 99% street driving I do.

For an EG hatch with a B16, most kits that are made aren't for that combination, especially if you are looking to have an intercooler with it.

I think Drag may make kits for swaps, but besides that, you'd just have to get a B16 kit and make any adjustments needed yourself.

The only real modifications you MAY have to make is the exaust bolting up and the intercooler pipes. Won't be that bad. GL
