Buy it, it will work no problem. I bought four of the $700 kits and I have 4 turbos in my car. I recently just made 1423whp and 1794wtq at 98psi. I run like a 4 second 1/4 too. The kits are awesome!

Wow... OP you need to do a little research on turbos, turbo kits and the installation before you spend any money.
