damn.......yo but ok heres what i kno off the top of my head about the kit. Put the new exhaust manifold on...mount the turbo........run the piping from air filter all the way to intake.....then tap into oil pan and run the line to the turbo.....installin the BOV is no biggie.....only think id be confused about would be the Fuel management system it comes with......id appreciate any input here guys.........500 extra bucks could get me 1/2 way to a front mount intercooler or new exhaust.

id assume more if u are getting more than a bolt on kit. Greddy claims this entire kit is just bolt on........that would be sick thou cuz then when ppl ask whats done to the car i could just casualy say "Eh just some bolt ons"

damn, 500 bucks for a shop to do it is a hell of a deal. my friend has a b16 swap in his civic and is having a rev hard stage 2 installed. the cheapest shop he could find wants 1250 for it. of course, he laughed and a few of us are doing it this weekend.

yea, it should only take round 4 hrs to install. and with the oil pan, just drop the son of a bitch! it like 18 10mm nuts. and flush the pam out when got the nipple through the pan. and the biggest thing to remember is to no be afraid to ask for help when you need it!

Well yeah, the Rev Hard kits are just a tad more complex than the GReddy kits. And I'm guessing the kit comes with instructions, so it shouldn't be too hard to install.

For $500 you should do the install yourself if you have the capability. It sounds like you do, but you just need a bit more confidence. Drilling through the oil pan is no big deal. The more you do yourself, the more you know about your engine.

but how long would it take a shop to install rather than for me to?
