Default Jdm turbo kit

HELLO-Anybody have any product reviews or experience installing and using this kit? It is a killer deal $$$ IMO. I read the beware sticky re; Turbo kits. I clarified the issue re; LS Compatibility with the company.
I keep thinkin you get what u pay for-but there are always exceptions.

THANKS IN ADVANCE

^^^What he said. There's is no way that intercooler is going to be efficient enough for a V8...let alone a 4 cylinder. That thing will heat soak in seconds lol. If your purchasing something for a V8, then there are pleanty of sponsors on this site...KYTP and Virginia Speed, etc. Just my 2 cents

Turbo is way to small also. Turbo is junk, Just do a truck manifold setup if you want to do it cheapish.

Intercooler: Light Weight. Size 27'' x 7'' x 2.5'' inch. Inlet size is 2.5 inch.
Support up to 350 hp for this small intercooler size - tube and fin style .

Blah, 2 inch piping seems very small.............. For anything more then 4 cylinders.

lol. That is a mild turbo in the 4g63 world, not sure how you expect that thing to push enough airflow to even make a difference on your car?

skip the turbo and put a JDM muffler before your intake manifold, youll make more power

Pros - Instant spool.

Cons - Intercooler wont support the N/A horsepower.
Possibility of making less horsepower then you start with... Due to the small turbo choking your exhast.....

ebay has a descent kit that consist of the hot parts for our cars, its good if you need to keep your ac but it does not fit very well, dont even think about using the downpipe that comes with it!
the kit you posted is the way wrong thing for you, and if your trying to do a "budget boost build" just stop now, boost build and budget just dont go together
