$450 for a "full kit" sounds a little sketchy.

what the average life expectancy of a turbo Honda on this forum?
04 Subaru WRX Sport Wagon
95 GMC Suburban (Honda hauler)
94 Del Sol vtec (some boost is better than no boost)
91 Chevy S-10 V-8 (toy, soon to be gone though)
87 Honda 250R (as close to a Type R as I will get)
