does anyone know of any other turbo kits that include everthing (fmu, intercooler, etc.) that i would need to have for a full turbo set up that is similar to the edlbrock one? im just thinking cost now, that kit will drain my life for a year trying to save for it. are there any like around $2300-$2500 range that arent slapped together?

i can get you peakboost turbo kits
PM for pricing...
i must add the edelbrock is a nice kit, and comes with a fantastic ball bearing garrett turbo....
when the turbo usually sells for a grand itself, its not a bad deal.

exactly... thats the one downside..
but honestly if you save up for an edelbrock kit, its a great turbo that comes with it....
however the management system isn't the best
