overall its ok. its a very very very very very very very very mild kit --- read TIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINY turbo. i've seen one in person.... i think its smaller than a t25. quality of manifold looks good. and the downpipe fmic piping is 2 inch all around. cheap bov. turbo way too small.

Go to https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1283105 and talk to him about the peakboost kit.. i think they are on sale right now for 2799 if i am not mistaken.they have packages available for real engine management.. but if you want an fmu and missing link(which i dont reccomend) he will work something out with you

Don't bother touching that kit with a 10 foot poll. If you were going for that small of a turob you might as well save yourself some trouble and go with a JRSC.

uh, look again. Drag is a great entry level kit- and a great base to build on. I use a drag/turbonetics t3/t4 and its wicked.

as for the kit you linked to- the turbo looks really small, like a OEM mitsu turbo or something

that downpipe doesnt even FIT that manifold so i dunno wtf thhey're thiking. in addition the turbo sucsk. its not a real turbonetics its a rebuilt down2turbo/mjmauto i had that POS same exact t3 go out on the same day and become unbalanced and bent the f-ing shaft. ( HT member aznphantom). also i RECENTLY had a customer send me the manifold cuz its a POS casting. cant even cast it right it had a hole in the manifold.

i ran the turbo specalties kit with my first boost project and id have to say i had mixed feelings about it. the turbo was not bad at all (unless you have high power goals) but you could definately peice to gether a custom kit that is much better for MUCH less $.

custom kit w/uberdata
