Re: opinion on this?

Seems to be an offer, but i dont think its a bolt on. There is ALOT of work and custom fit needed in order to install it properly, as the picture suggest.

Re: opinion on this?

"This package has all new quality parts that are capable of producing well beyond 485 horsepower at 25+ PSI with supporting modifications and a built motor."

Theres no way you can boost near 25psi on our engines without extreme modification. "Supporting modifications" means new ECU system, injectors, exhaust, valves, MAF, etc etc. Seems like an OK price at $400 but thats just the tip of the iceberg.

Re: opinion on this?

It's just a generic turbo kit, and at that price, probably a poor one. You would still have to do a huge amount of fabrication, build the engine to take boost properly, figure out an engine management system....

Re: opinion on this?

First thing to do with that kit is throw the turbo in the trash along with the intercooler and the piping....

Aside from that seems like a good deal
