ok i have a 02 ep3 and im looking at either a k24a1 or k24a2 swap. can get both for cheap so im not sure what one? BUT i been reading on alot of post on here about ebay turbo kits. i no ppl says there junk, and others love them but what if i get one.. change the waste gate to a tail and get a hks blow off valve. and change the turbo (not sure what yet, suggestions plz), i would have a pretty good kit putting down some nice number ya? my car is my DD so with a k24 swap i think 10-12psi should be good and hit around 350whp maybe? i already have kpro and would like to ge a rec hard kit but i could do this for what less then half the cost and push out the same numbers? its pretty much just for all the hardware and the log mai. and that would even get changed down the road once it cracks cuz obv its going to. here is the link to the kit and any help would be great! thank ep'ers

they also have it for the ep but the down pipe and what not with this kit would clear the sway for a k24 swap? or if im wrong id get the other kit. but plz help!

i'd get the a1 if u went with ebay stuff...easier on the wallet.
if you got the money, gt35r. Seems to be the happy place with alot of people. at the minimum a gt28r but its rare to find anyone running it.

idk about that ebay turbo runing anything more than 9psi, so yeah.

read some more posts, you'll find some good info. read the turbo 101 thread i made.

i always liked pieceing together kits. every turbo build ive done i would piece together. if your looking for a money saving option look for some used parts. also i would go with the A1 since it has lower compression and more boost friendly. but thats just my opinion. good luck.

easy there. He just said to get a kit because you had just stated "im more worried about the little things i dont want to get to the part my car is tore apart and im missing things and im screwed". The kit would come with all of those little things.

Showstoppers revhard stage 2 without k-pro is 3,300 shipped. I pm'd them Friday after hours and heard back Monday middle of the day.

its not the best way but you can get a oil filter sandwhich from greddy for about $60. that would take care of the oil lines. like i said, not the best but easy. or take your pan and have it tapped for fittings.

They probably dont have any info cause RevHard is going out of business. If I was you I would get one of those turbo whistle things that go in the muffler. Makes you sound fast, makes panties drop, and saves you money. Yay! Triple benefit. Haha. Sunspot got mad. What a douchebag.

dude, you're the one throwing the F-bomb and calling someone a cunt. Take your shitty attitude back to clubep3. Before you go, read through this thread slowly and you will see who stepped out of line first.

Wow. For having a turbo'd bike and all that money, you would think that you could afford an education that would help you learn to spell. Lol good job on the google search of my name too. Glad to see that I gather interest. For the record, I have built cars before, and now I'm at that time in my life where I need my time to make money, so I don't have to live in a barn like you. And if you were so smart, and didn't plan on buying a kit....why did you name your thread "what turbo kit" if you already had your mind made up? Going further, so you have money to turbo a bike, but then you want to cheap out? If this was true, then you would already know all of the components needed to put together a kit within your budget. I have money, a fast car, a home, and success, and you have your loud, silly mouth. Sorry I can't compare to your greatness. Lol again, what a douchebag. Go back to the boondocks and race your slow pile off of a cliff. Didn't take you long at all to get all butt hurt, did it? LOL. "Aren't these forums for helping people? Someone please pay attention to me and my lame ass thread that there is tons of info on here about already" boo-hoo:gheywa::banstick: <<<<<<<Someone do us all a favor, and permaban this loser.

We both own Hondas you dumbass, otherwise why else would you be on this forum?! LOL True genius this guy. There are tons of sites that have info on what you are asking, including this one. Try K20A.org. I would love to see how long it takes you to get banned from there for being a retard. Please migrate your name and slow pile elsewhere.
