Yeah you guys have very good points, best not to spend the money on something that might end up being the same amount as the better kit in the long run anyways

I bought a complete on3 kit and sold it BNIB for $1500 and got a KB kit..... I think if someone wanted to do it for the absolutely cheapest and make around 450-500 tire just for a fun street truck it might be worth it. If you plan to put a decent sized BW turbo on it then you have to get a new down pipe and pray the header doesn't crack.

Just depends all on one thing really, Are you a gambling man?? Are you willing to drop $2k on it might be a good one? In the end, I wasn't!

If you on a tight budget, then just buy on3 turbo, and build your own kit, much cheaper, but don't cheap out the Watergate and bov and the fuel parts, you be good. I would just build my own kit if budget don't allow a top notch kit like kb or truck. Then later when money's right and can afford a good turbo just swap turbo out or turbo and whole down pipe. On3 78mm would be best for the buck if on a tight budget, home made kit
