For a real deal on a F/I kit:

you should really look out for the shops you seem to be dealing with - seem shady at best...

How about you buy me 50$ worth of booze in where you're at and I'll pay for shipment of the liquor. If "under a grand" gets you a TN ST at the Mojave, then the 50$ would keep you drunk till New Years...
C'mon let's stop the sarcasm for just a second... Listen, I know enough about what I'm looking at in the shop's online catalog to know what I'm buying. They buy their products through a parts distributor online and have access to wholesale prices.

Allow me to explain because obviously everyone is flaming the crap outta me here ... The TN ST is JUST the turbo unit itself, no piping, no intercooler, nothing but the turbo ...for a cool $900... It's the only FI piece they can get and I want some more HP for the money. I'm no tuning genius but the rest of the parts needed to complete the ST upgrade can be bought or even fabbed in house. This I know, so get off my fricken back...

interFooler? Did your mommy come up with that one? ...jesus

If I were going to go totally custom I'd flip the exhaust manfiolds and mount the turbo up front. Hell yeah.
