How durable are these kits for street driving? I would think that for $499 the things would crack very easily with some heat cycling.

You do not loose your ac with that kit, I have the actual KIT it was modeled off of on my car right now. I am about to start my thread about the build with some pics.

You will need turbo, wastegate, BOV, and an Alt. relocation kit.
