Ive personally waited 6 months for PIPING alone. I cancelled the Turbo, WG, BOV, etc because I could source them from somewhere else. Still waiting on the refund. (2 months and counting)
On two other kits, waited 6-8 months for them to be complete. Everything was paid for 100% upfront.
Bullsh*t if you ask me. If its gonna take forever, let people know!

Just remember that all of your supporting mods need to step up to the TC76, too. That 60 mm turbo at 5-7 psi isn't going to be as needy as the 76. Are you upgrading fuel delivery? What size injectors? Using an intercooler? Methanol? How many miles on your stock motor?
If you're trying to do this with minimal cost, maybe giving the "little" turbo a try is the first step...

I disagree you can limit your boost to 6-7 psi and run whatever you got for a while then up the boost later. Its a no brainer don't start out with a small turbo and then you will have to drop another grand on a new turbo as soon as you want more boost. Just set the WG to 7 psi for now.
