that tuebo kit u are looking at is referred to as the F-Max kit. some other kits to look at are the Nsport, turbo xs, and the greddy turbo kit which will be released in about 2 weeks. as of now the Nsport seems to be the kit of choice for most members on nico but, greddy is just about to release their kit which should add some competition. and a down-side to the nsport kit(which is very similar to the Fmax kit) is the shipping time. u can wait nearly 4-5 months to wait for the Nsport kit to arrive

i believe the whp for the fmax should be about 220-230 and the nsport has been rated at 240 rwhp! a SACF is not needed for the kits because they come with a preset FMU but a SAFC wouldnt hurt and yes u will need a boost gauge and should prolly get some other guages to be safe (but are not needed)

oh and the back-time for the Nsport is due to back orders on parts that are included in the kit. i believe Structure240 was waiting a couple months for the intercooler that was on back order to come in.
