Turbo Kit...
 
The kit consists of a ASR Stage 3 T3/T4, Link Plus ecu with pnp harness and laptop connector, RC440 injectors, Spearco topmount, Ludespeed up/down pipes, Blitz sus intake, Hallman mbc, Turbonetics wastegate. Comes with all the hardware and couplings. All for $2500.

Good deal? :?:

Who is ASR?

Anyways, I wouldn't do it. Not if you're still getting the budget for a swap next year. Link is outdated as engine management, MBCs are poop even on RSTs, and there are better turbo choices than T3/T4, which is really a generic turbo. Do they say what A/R and trim the turbo is?

Bottom line is, going to stand-alone engine management is a serious pain in the ass for a street car. You'd honestly be better off with a homebrew turbo kit at low boost with an SAFC. But, the best route still is, and will always be, complete motor swap done right.

ASR is a now defuct off-shoot of some company. I remember the guys name was Alan and I think Tom of Kartboy fame ran his kit, but it's been a while.

I thought you might lose your car Brandon, now you have money for a turbo?

Probably one of the Minnam guys. Anyway, moot point now.

Brandon, was it a used kit you were looking at? And yeah, did your mom just do another 180?
