Huron V1 VS. CXRacing VS. ON 3 Performance So it's time for me to pick one of these turbo kits for my 2002 WS6. The car was once Procharged but now it's waiting for some boost. I've been looking into all three of these kits for the last two weeks. I still have the stock K-member and sway bar. I'll be adding a Boost Leash Progressive boost controller. AC has already been removed. All kits have been priced with a 76 mm T4 with a 1.15 housing. They are just a few hundred bucks from each other. So I really would like the communities input on what you all believe is the best kit. I'll notate my pros and cons under each link.

I've heard a couple of horror stories.

This kit is actually here in town for a great price. But I will need to find some truck manifolds, oil line kit, and I'll need to drop my sway bar.

This kit is the cheapest one out of all, but it retains the stock MAF sensor and actually uses it after the 90 coming off of the Throttle Body. I have a deleted MAF sensor. So I'll need to track one down.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

I looked at all 3 of these kits before I bought mine. I went Huron because I found a great deal on mine but also because of a few other reasons.
On3:
1. Thinner walled stainless (I didn't want to worry about potential cracking issues)
2. Needs a scavenge pump (some don't use them but I wouldn't take the chance)
3. By the time you add in a better turbo (their 76 at the time wasn't going to cut it for my goals), better wastegate and bov you were approaching the Huron kit price.
CX Racing:
I asked them a few questions and didn't really seem to get much back in return. Just horribly written English with no real answers in them.

i went with on3 kit. customer service has been just fine. you don't need a scavenge pump you can gravity feed the drain, just make sure you get a good pcv system but thats with any turbo setup....i couldn't justify paying so much money at the time for just piping with other kits available. i think all the kits have their own little quirks its just up to you on what you decide and fits your budget the best.

Agreed. I'm on my 2nd Huron Speed turbo kit. The quality and customer service are 2nd to non. Jon prides himself with bringing you the best product at the best price with lights out customer service.
Huron speed without a doubt.
There customer service is of the best out there.
If you have a problem there right on top of it.
Don't even think about order there kit and don't look back

OP, you reference that the three kits are within a few hundred bucks from each other, but the Huron Speed kit is quite a bit more expensive once you add in the turbo, BOV, waste gate, etc. The other two kits already come with the turbo, BOV, and waste gate, so they are significantly less expensive.
I dont have any first hand with either kit, but since no one mentioned this article. Seems they liked the cx racing kit, it made good power and they thought it was built well.

Any T4 turbo will work. The on3 turbo will bolt up to any T4 based kit. If you placed it side by side with a Turbonetics unit, other than brand names on compressor housings they are identical.
