I installed one on a '99 EX (D16Y8) and I believe it came with a T25. It's a good little kit. All-inclusive for sure. We didn't have to get anything other than what they provide in the kit to make it work. It was a pretty simple install. swaggs21 on here is the one that has it and he is happy with it from my understanding. Not too sure what all is included for a DOHC motor though.

It includes everything needed for a complete setup also the intake mainifold for more air flow which is a nice feature. But for $3000 I would rather get a custom kit and save the money

Just look at what the kit has, then ebay the equivelant. That's what I've been doing, so far I got it down to 1,300$ for a whole kit.

If you just want a little boost, you can start with a kit from turbocalculator.com @ $600, then get an intercooler. I already have an intercooler, so I'm going to try one of those out soon.

doesn't come with a new intake manifold, charge pipe with a BOV flange, BOV, and is often missing the little things like couplers, hoses, etc. Edelbrock is a much more complete setup. Greddy does offer the e-Manage, which is more readily tunable than the Link system offered with the Edelbrock kit though. h:
