Hello everyone Ive been thinking about buying this but wanted to get more opinions on it first. I am not sure what the install would cost and if this even has everything or is fake. Please share feedback what you think.

its not that it is fake and does have everything, but is no name and poor quality. You will have more money into it replacing parts or getting manifolds rewelded more than even driving the car after everything is installed.

Just save up a few more bucks and piece together a kit, or search around. You can buy a used turbo kit off someone that has all high quality parts for around $1500 or so.

i'm gonna agree with Scot on this one... it's a packaged up selection of no name chinese parts. pass, save up and get the good stuff the first time...it's cheaper in the end.

ya I had a feeling at this price it would be cheap parts, but is it worth it to either turbo/twin turbo or supercharge a 7th gen v6. I havent seen it done much and have a feeling it will end up costing at least half the price of the value of the car

That kit won't even fit your car. It's for the four cylinder, not the six cylinder.

You need to do A LOT more research before you go off dreaming about forced induction. Otherwise it'll be a huge waste of your time and money. Look at what other people with your car are doing to make power. See what works and what doesn't.

You are better off stroking it to a 3.5. Huge power gains, and all honda parts still, so you will not compromise reliability. All bolt ons+stroke will yeild a lot more power than you think.

I can't believe this company came up. Fuck them and their shitty work.

Do research on this site and then decide if you want to take it there... Otherwise there are people on this site that work out of their garage that I would trust better than Adrenaline.

Depeds who does it I suppose, you will need a J32A2 block (02-03 TL-S/01-03 CL-S), 04 Odyssey crank and rods, and depending on what kind of compression you want, 05 Acura RL pistons, or 04 Odyssey/MDX pistons. (RL pistons= higher comp)
