it is basically a china kit except for the turbo. aaron does use garrett internals for his turbos. if youre looking at the cheaper kits its a better setup than the xs power kit for sure with the better turbo, braided lines, and better fittings.

yeah. i did forget about the xs kit coming with an intercooler and bov. im an advocate of piecing your own kit together anyways since most of these parts from these kits can be had for fairly cheap considering theyre mostly chinabay stuff.

yeah pretty much just the turbo and oil lines. the shop has good support as well. i didnt buy the DM kit but ive bought a good bit of odds and ends from them and theyve been very knowledgeable and worked well with me from the times ive delt with them.
i wish these kits came without the 4" intake pipe and gave you a 3" with a reducing coupler since the 4" pipes are pretty much useless unless you clock the flange on the manifold...these kits do require a bit of modification to work.

I have a "cheap" t-70 and its a beast. Runs good, sounds good and makes plenty boost. Its huge for what Im making power wise but I like to feel the spool.
The good thing about cheap, if it breaks, it doesnt cost 1000 or more to replace. Not too mention I can rebuild turbos.

I just finished shopping for my turbo last week. Haven't got time to instal yet, so I can't tell you how it run. Most of it I got from Treadstone Performance. Some parts I got from ebay.
Manifold ss321, 3" down pipe, 4" intake tube from ebay $250
Oil feed/ return kit from ebay $50-100
Turbonetics T66 ball bearing (on sale) $950
Turbonetics Raptor BOV $200
Turbonetics RG-45 waste gate $382
Treadstone TR10 intercooler $280
Treadstone 3" intercooler kit $212
3" BOV adaptor pipe $38
14-3" T-bolt clamps $44
Silicone reducer 3"-2.5" $16
3" Denso MAF adaptor pipe $65
4" straight silicone hose $9
3" v-band clamp $27
AEM UEGO $169
AEM boost gauge $150
AEM FI/C $400
AEM extention harness $200
Transmission intercooler $50
Add another $100 for shipping charge
That's all I could think of right now. There will be some extra for other bits & ends but the major parts are there. My goal is reliability since this is my daily drive.
