Dont buy used turbo kits.

So yeah I bought a revhard kit from a member on here Annanherep3 or something like that. Got the kit took it to my installer. First off there was no hardware but that was ok she told me about that intially. Second I was sent stock injectors, no trying to make it right, all they said is she sent me the right ones. Baam theres a 400 addition. Missing wire to the gauges she sent. Now I have to buy a whole new control unit. Theres another 100 bucks and who knows when ill get that because its backordered till forever. No intake pipe =another 100. And the countless other things that are missing. So know my car has been sitting at the install shop for 3 weeks now. And who knows when ill get it back.

New revhard kit with k-pro upgrade= 4000
What ive spent already and im not done yet= 4200

Sorry to hear about your situation yo.........a friend of mine recently had similar problems buying a used kit for his 92 hatch. He was emailed pictures of all that he would be getting...things looked straight so he sent the money order. When the guy cashed the money order he sent the used kit to my boy minus the Tial BOV and wastegate, there was a massive hole in the charge piping where the BOV had been, and no vacuum lines. He hasn't seen the guy online since and doesn't have any way to find him.
Anyways, good luck with the rest of the install. Hope it runs great
