I like the Hinson and the kit you have for sale. In theory it's exactly what I want. Just won't do any hacking on my car. Acc are a must for me. It's more than just a drag car for me.

Strongly suggest buying Mawnee's kit as opposed to a Hinson. I purchaed a Hinson 2 years ago and thought I could cobble things together. Boy was I wrong. I ended up returning it due to massive fitment issues. On top of that I would have still been out labor charges to have custom cold pipes and custom intercooler made. Live/learn.

The people offering me lowball offers always seem confident they can piece together a kit for less :P I have SOOO many hours into my setup engineering something superior to that other hotside.....

I was able to remove my setup and convert my car back to NA in a handful of hours. Guys that have installed/uninstalled turbos on our cars know what this means. Its built right...and its thought out.
