Well I would tell how great it is to do a custom set up and you will save so much money...well it really depends on how long you want to wait. You want boost fast buy some sort of kit. If you want to wait for people to make you stuff to save yourself some money go for it. personally I wish I had bought a kit...2 1/2 months and waiting...

Yeah, if you want to save some money, do it yourself. You will end up with a much better setup for a lot less money. I didn't break the $2k mark and I have a brand new turbo, wastegate, and intercooler. It took me almost a year to collect the parts at the prices I got them though. If you want it NOW, and you don't want any down time, get a kit. I would suggest Rev-hard over DRAG, even though both are good kits.

honestly dude I just saw what kind of car you have...Go greddy all the way.
Be a great starter kit and it's only 1400.00 serioulsy you car will have a good extra 60 hp and be really reliable. I suggest GREDDY

I just ordered a drag 3 kit from wired ricky at wiredspeedlab.com with the hondata s200b for $3000.00 even. Ive seem them perform and they are a very good kit. also you have the option of upgrading to the tial 35 mm waste gate, missing link and stage 5 wheel kit for $80 each. my complete order was the drag 3 kit with 96 B18C-R mani and downpipe, and eg intercooler and pluming, plus the greddy bov, I upgraded to the tial wastegate and the missing link plus the hondata s200b and a greddy turbo timer all shipped for $3300.00

you should check it out in the sponsors market.
