Pretty affordable for what looks to be a full kit, but then you always have to wonder where corners have been cut. They don't even have photos of what you're buying!

For a full kit thats a pretty good price. Its all the little things which add to the mass price, not to mention a decent sized turbo brand new is worth a fair bit

That's like saying to someone who wants to buy a car "Get a Ford", when Holden will do the job equally as well (despite our obvious brand bias).

KKK is OEM fitment to Porsche among others.

Yea it looks like a good buy, but there is still time for bids. Turbo looks similar to the first set up Duffman had on his car, same red compressor housing...

You can add a malpassi rising rate reg and run std ecu and injectors and this should be good to get upto 200rwkw, if you change ecu,injectors,255ltr walbro fuel pump it will be good upto 300+rwkw depending on tune.
