Good or Bad? (SR Turbo kit)

Looking at getting a turbo kit for my S14 sr20, just wondering what you all think of this:

http://www.treadstoneperformance.com...C+240SX%2C+S13

*highlights*

# Turbonetics T3/T4 turbo, 1 year warranty!
# Turbonetics Evolution wastegate
# Treadstone cast manifold
# Treadstone intercooler
# Treadstone 2.5" Polished aluminum pipe kit
# Treadstone stainless downpipe kit
# Treadstone complete oil kit
# Treadstone silicone and T-bolts
# High flow air filter, upgradeable to K&N
# All hardware and gaskets included

Most reviews I read about it said it was pretty good and got full boost around 2900 - 3800 rpm

Looks solid. Cat iron manifolds are generally not going to give you problems. Greatly resembles the enjuku kit which I have used before and is also cheap. Personally I would opt for them, but this one looks fine. The only questionable piece is the intercooler which i would guess cheap crap (poor internal fin design), but I cant say for sure
