I would prefer this one more stuff and only $900, a good deal I think. Not sure if that link will work, first time to try and post a link, sorry. But its on Ebay, put in b16 for your search, its on a red carpet.

non intercooled? 320cc inj.? not woth it I had 395cc's on a d16 w/10psi and they almost were in adequate. a b16 flows even more air than that so should need 400-550cc injectors to make any power. just my opinion

I'm beggining to think that piecing together a kit is the way to go It's a hell of a lot cheaper but requores a lot more work but if done right it can produce the same results what do you guys think? Save the extra cash and build your own or spend the money?

Total junk It's a picture for one, you really don't know what you're gonna get, 2, it's an ebay turbo kit, doubt it's gonna be the best, 3, save a little more money and piece together one here and there. You can piece together a turbo kit for under $1,500
