Read the DIY section and the stickies at the top of the section. They contain this information and it's right there for you to read.

Also need to take tuning into consideration, being its cost and what you plan on using.

Where have you found a greddy kit new for 1400 or whatever? Ive seen them for 1600 but then you really do need bigger injectors, a fmic, something legit to tune with instead of that garbage piggyback.

Meh, the piggyback is meant to plug n play say you can just drive. I believe it's set to 8psi or something. Anyway. Itll be easy 2k+ and then the additional cost of tuning if you get something else to tune with. I got everything to boost my ish for 2600$ including a dynotune. The reason mine was so expensive is because of the S300 with boost control which cost me almost $800. point being, piecing it together is cheaper and you get what you want in your kit.
