it would be much easier ot find a kit on the .org. i think there are two right now on the other .org that are goin for a decent price. problem with that kit is that:
a)intercooler piping will not fit without major mods since it was for a civic
b)it would be a hassle to sell everything
c) there is nothing to supply and control fuel
just save the hassle and get a used kit from the .org or piece together ur own. dont skimp on forced induction, usually leads to bad.

Not a bad price for a new Turbo, but as mentioned above...
No fuel control
No plumbing for the oil and coolant lines for the turbo
Inercooler would have to be modded
The charge pipes probably wont fit
Needs a custom manifold
Granted if you have everything else already, its not a bad price for what is included...

Man I say go for that shit . If they would have had that when I bought my custom kit I would have been al over it. I say get that kit , search the forums for a fuel pump and some injectors, rising rate fuel pressure regulator , hell Dark-one is selling a t3 manifold and as for piping it will need to be modded anyway so for that price go for it

hate to break it to ya, but there is no such thing as a 'cheap' turbo system.
you get what you pay for.
I did my SRT-4 turbo setup with all grade A parts, and only the turbo and ic was used. I did it for just a hair over $1500. I can't imagine doing a excellent quality setup for any less than that.

I bought every piece of my custom kit with a EBC, LM1, TT, and custom guages added for $2500. The only reason was because I got the deal of a century on a Garrett T3/T4 hybrid new for $250. tell me that wasn't a steal . I helped out this guy that needed money quick for family reasons by buying the turbo from him. he was going to boost his VW Jetta but now its going to boost the hell outta my neon

Re: just tryin to get boosted for cheap
If you sell the turbo, manifold, wg, and intercooler, what do you have left? A few fittings and some intercooler piping that won't fit?neon_ert3 wrote:i found this kit on ebay but its for a civic. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/D15-D16- ... dZViewItem
