better to spend the big bucks and get a name brand

turbo kit or is it not worth it? Looking at a few turbo kits and saw there's single and twin turbo kits that are greddy/GTM/SFR that are between 4,500 and 7,500 and then I see on ebay there's the T3 or T4 turbo kits for like 1,800. What do people on here run? Also what is the best engine management system for the money? Thanks.

Ebay is the best brand hands down bang for buck. They are cheap because they use better quality parts, duh.

Best engine management? psh, just pull your wiring harness out of the stock ecu, flip it upside down, force it back in. Little secret that Nissan never told anybody.

eBay kit, hands down! Just be careful, they put down a lot of power. You'll be lucky if you don't blow the welds on the intake manifold...

Yes this shiit is getting old isn't it. Are new members so naive that they think they can install quality forced induction for less than $4,000. Or is

I am thinking about going turbo

an unwritten requirement for new members to impress everyone.
