So this kit isn't any good

This kit shipped to me in the uk minus the import charge is 1000ish pounds and compared to the same kit or Jackson supercharger kit here in the uk ranges from 2.5k - 6k and that's a mega difference.

a lot of stuff you wont need in that kit. Best thing to do is just buy parts separate, or go with the emusa kit. You can usually find used brand name parts pretty cheap. I got my turbonetics wastegate 80$, Greedy Bov 80$, Precision turbo 550$ and the emusa intercooler for around 200$ with all the piping. Then you would just need a cast iron turbo manifold which you can find for 100$ a set of injectors and kpro. Which it all should come out to around 1600$. It's 100% better than getting that crappy universal kit. Later on you can just upgrade piece by piece, once you have everything together.
