Man do i wish i still had my beater integra. It would totally be rocking that. I am about ready to go buy a junker and throw it on just to see how it is.

Even if you have to modify, re-weld, or brace somthing i would giv it a shot. Let us know if you do.

I believe i even see a missing link in there...

And T-bolt clamps. This is actually impressing me a little bit.

the kit looks pretty good....but its deffinatly not a "full-race" kit like the auction says.

i suppose for that price that kit is not half bad.

Ok speaking from experience. Don't buy a turbo kit from ebay. I ordered one and had to sell it for half the price i paid cause the damn thing was damaged so bad it had to be rebuilt. All i can say is if your going to do it right. Spend the extra money and get a good setup from an actual performance shop. Such as Boost-Logic.
