That'd be FI on a budget. Seriously though used plus labor, missing parts, & Fab will eat 5k right up.

I'm not saying you couldn't get more FI performance for cheaper, but I just did this @$4500 said and done and got 340rwhp/340rwtq out of it. Top of the line installer and fabricator, with really good work but a small turbo. End of the day $1700 for kit. $2800 for fab, install, and parts missing from original kit. It was a steal and money pit at the same time.
