Default TSI Extreme Turbo Kits????

So I came across a site that's selling this kit and I was wondering if anyone has heard of them. Does anyone know if the Kit is any good and if the quality is decent?

1) it comes with a T25
2) it has a lame 2 extra injector fuel system a la old FMAX kits
3) that downpipe has a ridiculous bottleneck
4) they dont give you any brands of the parts included, nor sizes of piping

It looks like a junkyard kit with a name on it. $2800 for that is nuts.

I'd skip it for all of the reasons above.

If you want to save a bit of money, get a Max-Rev kit. It doesn't come with any fuel solutions but then the stuff which comes with these kits is usually worth replacing anyway. It has things like a nice Tial blowoff valve and wastegate, a good sized T3/TO4E 57 trim turbo, etc.

Then you need to get yourself a fuel pump (Holley part # 12-916), some injectors, and an electronic means of dialing it in (VAFC or Hondata).

Thanks guy's, After this and some other researching I've done, I think I'm gonna agree that this is not the kit for me. Thanks again.

Walbro and Holley are identical.
