Look at your car and his car in terms of stock for stock. True, you're getting a turbo setup with his, but that could be a mixed thing. Judging by his "ebay" turbo, the setup isn't quite top-notch...this point is furthered by the street tune. If you can justify your car for his car (disregarding the turbo setup) then go for it. After that, its up to you to determine what you want to pay for the turbo junk. Since there are no pictures, its hard to tell exactly what you're getting.

I probably wouldn't trade, mostly because yours would be more reliable...

Post pics of the teg?

did you even click the link? He has all name brand parts except for his turbo..

After taking a second look his biggest issue is the tranny grinding and smoke out the tailpipe...

But dollar for dollar he prolly has more than 2x the amount of money in his car... You easily low ball the entire turbo kit and trans for a mild all motor build and new(used) transmission...

I mean its a lil more work but you would definitely be able to come out with a faster car than he has now... I guess it all depends on how fast he actually tryna go...

And a street tune is just as good as a dyno tune as long as your tuner is competent...
