if a good turbo kit could be bought for $1000 EVERYONE would have one. A good turbo is $1000, a good turbo kit couldnt possibly be $1000. You get what you pay for, blah blah blah. Dont buy it.

I wouldn't hit that kit with another car. Like stated above, you get what you pay for. I spent 4 on my mine, so hit up Josh with Kentucky turbo.
