yall ready for some info..
i was kinda concerned so i called up HP performance and was like WTF is there kit good. they said NO. i know they are a competing company and all but at that price i believe them.

they said they get crappy used turbo's sand blast them down clean them up and use galvanized aluminum pipe with a flakey metal coating. like the BBK chrome cold air kits. they said the only part that is possibly any good is the intercooler. thats becasue they buy that from someone else.

they also said there is a good chance that you are gonna get screwed (scammed)

but they could be just blowing smoke cause its a competitor. who knows.
 
all of the parts in that kit can be found on ebay. its all knockoff stuff. minus the exhaust manifolds i could reproduce that same kit for prob 600 bux. there is nothing special included in the kit.
 
The kit is all fine and dandy (I guess?), but there is no dp's or exhaust adaptors, so you must figure that into the cost + all the oil lines. Lastly I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed but with no cold side "Y" (2 into 1) adaptor in the turbo discharge pipes and a single in / single out I/C, I just don't see how this will work on twin turbo setup? But hey it has some nifty gauges and a BOV with no place to mount it and that super xl fp regulator that looks like it could double as your catch can, that will "Increase fuel delivery by raising pressure around 5~10 horsepower"...LOL

This is more a collection of semi related ebay parts than a turbo "kit" for a mustang IMO.
 
better off buying a hot pipe kit from B&G and getting a JY turbo, rebuild it.. and a wastegate.. you could build a better kit for the money. It's a shame you know people are getting taken for a ride with those kits.
 
I don't know I paid a pant load for my HP kit, but the fit and finish is great, I have never had a problem, leak anything with the kit, it makes great...hell amazing power for what it is and it is simple and easy to work around. When I did head gaskets and studs I never even pulled the headers just took them lose and took the slip joints lose a bit and out came the heads, how easy is that.
 
now that looks like a cheap kit, kinda reminds me of that scam with the electric supercharger thats been on e-bay for a few years. I wouldnt get it, If anybody puts that on it will last for like 2 weeks and then probably blow to pieces :notnice: I would rather get an hp kit or junkyard boost my car than that thing :flag:
