ss autochrome is junk, i personally wouldn't buy it, your name brand kits would be good if your a beginner, but if you know what to look for then you'd be good, greddy is the best for beginners because it comes w/ vitually everything but the intercooler and bov

These kits are D series kits that you have mentioned people have had problems with.....do you guys think it would be the same for b series as i have a b16a2.

they did look quite dodgy, as the price looked to be to cheap.

Talk to Pete (pcupo) he'll tell you what you're going to need then just put everything together yourself. It's going to be cheaper that way and you can get good components.
