They're Chinese made kits with 304. Do they serve their purpose of boosting an engine? Yes. For how long? :dontknow:

+1.

Its a turbo kit and it'll work, but its sort of questionable as to how long and just how great the quality is.

Most people who say they're shit haven't touched them.

Get something with known quality like a B&G kit. The most basic #1 rule of modding is that you get what you pay for

You can get a new Vortech S-trim shipped for $2800, or a used one for about $1,800-$2k. I pieced together a middle of the road B&G kit, meaning not the cheapest parts but not the high end either with a turbo masters turbo, came out to about $2,500. But with turbo you're going to need gas pump, injectors, Calibrated MAF, something to tune I.e, tweecer or Quarter Horse, and tune time. Which should land you anywhere between $3,500-$4k depending on tuning.
