I think all those links are for the same FMAX kit. There are others to consider as well, just FYI. I think all of your questions have been answered in the SC300 engine forums because they are certainly the turbo gurus. If you want more detail about turbo kits:

From what I remember from just browsing on here, fuel economy is going to be the same assuming normal daily driving. (but where's the fun in that, lol)
A lot of people have done the install themselves for various reasons, but I think shops charge you for 10-12 hours of labor (?). Probably just depends on the shop. Hardest part is tapping the oil return line which involves drilling into the block. Here is some info about that:

Build your own kit, you say? Well I know CL member 'Bean' did just that. Hardest part to get is the exhaust manifold...hit up DaveH or now it looks like TOYOMOTO sells it seperately.

I do not have a turbo but can you tell I want one? lol Hope that helps a little bit.
