Well, I bet the turbo is too small, the manifold is useless, the turbo back exhaust won't fit. So I would say that $1000 for something like this is too much.

Now turbo!
With a catless exhaust, the air pump hose (or maybe the whole secondary air system?) is not necessary, right? So you install a black-off plate onto the downtube and remove the system.
What do you do when emissions comes around? Would you be able to re-install the cat without the air system and not throw a cel?

hey i have read all 7 pages of this forum and my question is mainly toward MM cause i know he knows his stuff. so my question is that i didnt see fully mentions is about having a test pipe with the turbo kit. i have a B&B test pipe with the B&B cat back exhaust and i want to put th greddy turbo on next in about 2 months give or take, and now from reading all 7 pages of this forum i saw that you and a few others mentioned that there is a possible problem that many seem to come across when you have a test pipe with the kit. now it was a few pages back so i dont remember the exact problem it was but if i have my test pipe on before i turbo my 8 will i still run into the problem? and if so what are the possible ways to fix this/these problems.
ive tryed to word this the best i could, i hope its clear enough for you to answer.

ok great cause i saw that you or others talked about having a problem. now what kind of tuning should i have done when i get the kit? [ im going to have a shop install the turbo for me and tune it, i dont want to **** up and destroy my engine liek someone said they did earlyer in the forum. if i dont know what im doing im not goign to **** around with something like a rotary engine.]

sorry swoope i dont understand what your saying when you say read more and take in what is said... i just dont know the difference between mech. and eletric guages.. what gives me the best results? and what are the main guages that im going to really want to have to monitor my engine and turbo? i dont want to buy guages that are going to be pointless to me

He is saying that rather than asking the same questions over and over again, use that lump between your shoulders and find some of your own information. As far as your gauge questions, here is a link that should explain it all,
