Leave those damn things alone. If you don't have the bread to get a real kit, then just WAIT,save up, or don't get into the game at all. you'll thank yourself later

 

i had a stock gsr b18c and i ran 7 psi with stock injectors and i made 261 whp with no problem. but that was a greddy kit not ebay and i had walbro fuel pump and all that. lets just say you get what you pay for. ebay is like a dallor general on the www

 

i had an ebay kit with a blurr manifold on an lsvtec i built, mostly stock internals but had b16 pistons cuz it was an n/a build to begin with. but i bought a thick cometic headgasket to lower the compression to about 10.2:1. conservative tune on dsm 450s made 320 @ 15psi. they are advertised as a 50 or 57 trim when they are actually like a 44 or 46 trim. i sold the car to a friend who dynoed it. ran mid to high 12s on 8 - 9 psi.

 

an ebay kit can be made to work, you would be better off buying it piece by piece for what you need, stay away from anything that they weld on ebay, downpipe, dumptube..etc as the welds will break or it will be way off and not fit right and need to be welded again. get a cast iron mani, and run a oil restrictor on the turbo so it won't blow the turbo seals.

get dsm 450 cc injectors, a walbro pump and get it TUNED!!!

like I said, take your time, do research and put it together right, you can pm me if you have specific questions but please read as much as you can.

Im on a ebay setup and Im very happy with it, they work good for people not looking to spend $2500+ on really nice parts.
