xsracing is SSAUTOCHROME not sure about god speed, but it most likely is as well. either way, if the prices are really cheap, and the parts are shiney dont waste your money.

definately dont waste your money on the turbo setup...I know no one wants to hear it but there manifolds can be used if you are on an extreme budget...but you have to reinforce all the welds and have to use some sort of reinforcement for where the turbo is to prevent cracking....I would just build your own kit off of here...it will cost a little more than the ssautochrome stuff but it will be well worth it.

do whatever you want, but going the cheap route on any build will end up costing you more later.

If you are worried about buying a kit and it all fitting then buy someone that has lots of r&d in the systems...ie. greddy, stuff like that. when you buy ssautochrome you still have to modify alot of stuff to fit. You want to do it right then plan everything you want first and expect to pay somewhere around 2000 at least for something that will last you not something that will get you going then break down on you and then you have to pay that 2000 to get it back to boost. If you hvae a goal in mind there is alot of people that will help you on here. But do some research as well on your own.
