oh jesus.....no dude. With turbos, you generally get what you pay for. Manifolds cracking is a (fairly) common problem with ebay/generic turbo kits, just dont do it. Piece together your own kit, it'll save you moeny and you'll learn alot in the process. Just research your *** off, read all the stickies at the top of the Nitrous/SC/Tubro thread, and you'll basically know whats up. Then Wikiepdia it, the nlook at other forums, and you'll be well on your way but for real, dont go with that, its bad quality and you'll regert it in the long run

nay.

piecing it together yourself is the best way to go. you get better parts/prices, and you learn stuff along the way...

if your too lazy to do that, get a kit from dezod.com. their stuff is good.

You want a cast manifold. Those shiny manifolds dont last.
