I'm looking to purchase a 95-96 240sx and Im planning on dropping a turbo on it. Its buy a company extreme turbo systems. It looks like a nice kit and comes with pretty much everything. I was wondering if anybody has tried this turbo kit or knows any info on it.

Never heard of them but it looks like parts from other companys kits. It has no fule management and if u realy want to use an FMU just peice together your own kit. it will be cheaper. With that setup you will really need some type of egine managment, Emanage, enthalpy, JW, lots to chose from.

You really should use the search button to find out everything you will need this isn't as easy as bolt it on and go. You have a lot of info to gather before you jump into this.

Anyway Welcome to nico and good luck with your build.

Hey does anyone see some rezembalnce in this kit to boost Design or is it just me?

Eh, id rather piece together a kit. That looks kinda like a nice manifold though. There are nicer out there, at the same price basically. The nice thing about buying a kit like that however is that you dont need to fab a downpipe.

It does come with a FMU, but those really are only good for low boost apps.

Oh and that manifold looks nothing like my boost designs mani.. I wish it did lol.

What do you recommend for fuel management. It comes wit a Vortech FMU and new fuel pump. would i need anyting else besides bigger injectors and a bigger MAF?

Walbro 255 fuel pump, DW injectors sized to your goals, fuel pressure regulator and gauge, Z32 MAF, and a corresponding ECU tune by Enthalpy or EFI Specialist (some say E-Mance is good too, but I haven't tried it yet). It's a plug and play setup that will require very little or no tuning.

You wont get 300 hp with an FMU bottom line. you will need some kind of management as said before. I am useing a enthalpy tune and am pretty pleased with it so far.

I wasn't talking about the mani I was just comparing as a whole to boost design, intercooler very simalar and BD used FMU in there kit, the mani looks like a little like AMS,

Never personaly tried this kit, but im considering their 2JZ kitIve heard very good things about them over at supraforums (and thats saying a lot as supra owners are very picky)(they used to make the Horsepower freaks kits in case you have heard of them)they also have a huge following in the Evo community.

Bang for you buck, i dont think that kit can be beat

Buy it and let us all know!!

ETS is a very reputable company with evo's.

They make very nice kits and I have yet to read a complaint about the kits or the service.

A thread on EvoM regarding their kigh end kit and a video is on there showing their kit powering a 1014whp evo. Their entry level T3 kits have alot of people showing good results as well, this is just an example

You really should check out the Engine/ Drivetrain classifieds section on this site, there are some great deals that beat the hell out of that, lol.
