CXracing, IMO, is garbage. I would only use the charge piping, couplers, manifold (but I would have a spare one ready to go in case it fails), intercooler, and downpipe (depending on the welds). Everything else is trash.

I would highly suggest to piece your own kit together. It may cost a little bit more, but if you stock with reputable name brands, you shouldnt have any issues in the future.

Check out the stickies in the turbo/supercharger/nitrous section. They have ALOT of good information

A lot of the time you can build the same kit with used parts for the same price or cheaper, just depends how much u shop around and if you are patient.
