New complete turbo kit for $1,134 shipped. Should I get it?

[Rage]

What do you all think of this turbo kit? These sell on Ebay and seems to be a really good deal. I see a lot of these Rev Speed turbo kits on Ebay and people are leaving good feedbacks about them. Im thinking that I could start off with this and upgrade things like the waist gate and BOV later on down the road. There are specs on this page but I dont know much about turbo specs. I have a 98 Civic EX with a GSR swap. I had a B16 with a supercharger on it in the same car not to long ago. I drive this car every day and I dont have to be the fastest thing on the road. I just want to have fun with the car every once in a while. Should I get this set up? I wouldnt mind getting another supercharger. That thing was sweet. Anway...

Should I get this kit?

its a cheap kit. no name brand parts. I would go with a treadstone kit for $1900. also, it saves you time and money/labor in the future from upgrading parts on the cheap kit.

Buy it for fun and upgrade the turbo later bro!

ebay kit - $1134 no name brand turbo, waste gate, BOV.

Treadstone kit $1839- turbonetics turbo, turbonetics waste gate, name brand BOV.


Do the math if you want to upgrade later.
Turbonetics turbo - $600+
brand name BOV - $180+
T-bolt clamps - $40?+
labor to upgrade later - $??

I have thought about the Treadstone kits. That is some good stuff. I had fun with the supercharger and I want just lil bit more power. Thats why I was thinking turbo and the fact I cant find anyone selling a GSR supercharger. Im planning on doing something next month as far as boost goes so Im doing some homework on it all now.

Thats why there is IA for you can get way cheaper parts!

listen to this guy ^^^^^ if you must get a cheap kit the treadstone one is the way to go. stay away from the super cheapo shit..you get what you pay for.



this is actually my 3rd post today about cheap turbo stuff

[GSRteg®]

Yea, go with this guy's info ^^^^

[cactusEG]

you get what u pay for

nothing against you, but I dont think you know much about turbo's to give out knowlege to other people. I was in Rage's position when i first signed up on IA, asking the same stuff years ago. You can get cheap stuff turbos on IA, but you have to take into consideration of shaft play, how many miles on it, did the turbo come off of a blown motor, things like that you have to check out before buying a used turbo. $700 more for a better kit with name brand stuff is actually cheap.

Voung is 1000000% right

[Vuongy_Dong]

thats what i always say. i didnt want to spend over 3g's on a kit and another 2g's in extra shit but it was totally worth it..and my shit dont break

[Vteckidd]

+1 for Japan man too!

[Rage]

When I do get one Im gunna need to get it tuned thats for damn sure. Im leaning hard on a Treadstone now if I cant find a deal on a SC or a good turbo kit here on IA. Hell I just saw that the Treadstone even has the air filter with it.

PM CH@DBEE hes a treadstone DEALER

[sagarchahal]

[JDMrequired]

PM CH@DBEE hes a treadstone DEALER

yes.listen 2 Mr.Kidd & Vuong.they know what they r talking about.

[scttydb411]

don't forget engine management...socketed/chipped ecu, larger inj, and tuning with whatever kit you go with.
