How much are you paying for it?
I would save your money and piece together a quality kit. You don't want to blow up your motor but you will jump on a cheap turbo kit. If you want to do it right and not kick yourself in the ass later when it craps out on you, buy a quality kit or piece one together after buying a good turbo, manifold, and downpipe.

I posted in your new thread....
I would have to disagree with the Turbo XS kit being one of the best out there. When I think of the best out there, Edelbrock, Drag, Rev-hard, and Greddy come to mind. They have their faults but if you really were serious about it, you wouldn't need a kit to begin with.
I hope that kit comes with some sort of fuel/engine managment for fueling under boost. For $1200, it sounds like something I would run from as fast as I could.
