Default OK Turbo Gurus-What kit do I buy.

I have a b16a/CRX all stock internals (have a spare motor that will be built
later) I want a kit that can be daily driven but still have some good time slips.
I just dont know where to start. I have read some on Rev-Hard, Drag, F-Max and Greddy.
Can some one please give me some advice on which kit will give the most bang for the buck.
I did a search and could not find a direct answer, so please no flaming.
Thanks for any help.

from what ive been told. drag is a decent kit. comes with basically everything u need including front mount intercooler. its a little more than 3000. good bang for the buck. but not recomended to use above 12 psi with stock internals. should usually run about 6-8. but the fmax. comes with injectors and a lower compression head gasket. with that kit u can safely run 12psi on stock internals as long as car is tuned right. this is all just hearsay from a performace tech...hope it helped a lil.

Build a kit. It definitely teaches you about what you've got, and you get all the best parts usually for less than the kits you would buy.

If I had to do it all over again, I'd get an InlinePro Cast Stainless manifold, a Tial wastegate, my same custom piping with a water/air intercooler, and a standalone with 440's or 550's injectors. For a downpipe, you can probably get one from whatever company you buy the manifold from, or order a DRAG one. They're pretty decent chop jobs.

I blew up my motor on an FMU, and I think that motor really would have been fun with a better fuel management.
