Too good to be true?
I feel dumb asking this but I am used to dealing with ONE speed shop when it comes to the stang so shopping around for the s13 is a little odd...
Anyway, I stumbled across this turbo kit for the KA and wanted an opinion, it looks too cheap to be good but I want an opinion. I know I will still need fuel upgrades, tuning, and exhaust work but is this thing legit? Its one hell of a steal if it is. I am trying for 325+whp by the time I'm done with the project but I dont know if a T28 can actually help me reach that.

Ok, I'm willing to pay that kinda cash for the kit. I'm still used to trying to turbo my focus I used to have.....3K for a turbo kit and the tune was crap. I am looking into the turbo I need but I have time, still working on the fricking motor. Looks like a toasted headgasket or warped head.

Thinking of buying the kit, having my friend who builds turbo bikes inspect and possibly re-tig the welds, sell the turbo on ebay and get a REAL GT28RS that will last.

the welds are not bad.. however just visually inspect them... when i had my ssac manifold i just touched up one weld.. and it was good to go.
as i said before.. the kits are very good to build around.
