i know turbonetics is a decently known brand but what do you guys think about this kit? worthy of a d15b jdm and about 8-10 psi with a mild engine build?

I'd go with the turbonetics and also check out go autoworks for the price you could get a really well kit with good quality parts for the same price

i was going to say it looks like a different kit, hence there is a ram horn mani and its an actual turbonetics turbo, i think the turbonetics is a bit bigger, id have to double check but for 1500 bucks that seems like a steal, specially from ebay
