he is going to be running a turbonetics t3/t4 turbo..

GReddy is not junk. They make the simpliest bolt on turbo kits ever, and they are QUALITY. They use genuine Mistu turbochargers. I can not complain about my GReddy 19T kit................bolted on, no sweat. Turbonetics makes good stuff too.....Hell, I almost bought a turbonetics kit, but I found a great deal on a GReddy kit. Had the turbonetics kit had the better price tag, I wouda got that. Theyre both good names, but I tihnk GReddy PWNS the competition when it comes to a beginners first kit.

just stay away from xs power, and ssautochrome turbo stuff, now those are junk

greddy
turbonetics
precision
mitsubishi
etc

all make really good turbo kits but greddy makes the best light turbo kits for beginners without going to crazy and still being safe
