cheap turbo deal

What do you guys think of this:
http://www.groupbuycenter.com/buy.asp?row_id=6669

It seems pretty much like a junkyard turbo without the trouble of actually searching for the parts... I was trying to build a junkyard T25 or T3 turbo, but seemed more trouble than it was worth. Only thing is it don't seems to come with no fuel computer, so +gauges its still like ~$1700 for a turbo.

Let me know wut you think... every year I can never seem to save enuff for that 3k turbo kit + extras and labor. Oh yeah, I have a B16a, so its not like picking up the greddy kit for the SOHC for like $1300.

Personally I think that is a lot considering they have a feedback of -1 and they don't even have a picture of the setup on the page.

I wouldn't bother. Besides you still have to add an intercooler, and BOV. Not to mention gauges, fuel management, etc. If you want a cheap turbo kit, just take your time and do a junkyard turbo yourself. If you search ebay, you can find b-series turbo manifold every so often. Or you could buy a new one from revhard (about $450).

KS Motorsports has a custom turbo setup - you assemble a kit from a variety of parts including revhard, drag, etc... At a very low price, website will be up within a month but in the meanwhile you can contact 2K_TEG at honda - tech or search for the group buy on honda - tech . com that is going on now... Prices are posted on that board
