Ugh.

Just the two words "turbo + kit" should never be uttered together.

There's a shortcut in there somewhere. A good turbocharger ALONE costs $600+.

I love how the mod's and pwner just.... pwned you hahaha- all except LBC hahaha he's MIA

imo- if u have some time u wanna burn, do the thing qr25de (the member) did- search up his thread. he got a full turbo+kit ( ) off ebay and then did the right thing and swapped junk parts out for good ones and researched a buttload. i'd start there- but no where are u gna find a respectable 'kit' unless its from a known manufacturer and its still gna be 2k monies ($$) plus for it

Wasn't planning on goin turbo. Mine's a cvt, don't want to blow the transmission. Was just throwing it up on here for discussion, and i didnt recall any previous discussion about this ebay item.

ahh- werd input is always appreciated :D

i looked up ur link- and there are other 'setups' that u can purchase for 'our cars' from the seller that give turbocharger upgrades and links and mini upgrades to the components for more money- most of us that would look at it would still be skeptical but hey- its an idea :P
