Default Need some turbo advice..

Ok I know this type of question has been asked over and over. I have searched and would just like to hear some opinions.
I am looking for a turbo kit for my B16/CRX.
I was looking at the F-Max kit. It seems like a complete "bolt on kit"
I have also looked into Full-Race.
Do any of you have any advice?
I know that the full-race one would be more cause you have to buy injectors and Stuff separate.

Can I really piece a kit together that would compare to these for less money?

you can peice together your own kit, i did this with mine not so much that i would save money, but because i can get ALOT better performance and what i want for the same price. if you have the money, full race is the ****. if not, take ur time and peice together ur own kit for around the same price as the fmax, but with double the quality/performance. just my 2 cents

if you get the fmax kit you can get it without the mf2 fuel system, and it will be alot cheaper

What about the drag kit? Are any of you using it?
Are all the parts high quality?

if you want to get it over and done with, i go with a kit. I enjoyed piecing a kit together due to the fact that i get more hands on time with many different products, what works and what dont work. So, it's basically to me a time constraint. If you have plenty of time to work on a car, go piece the turbo project. Good luck.
