Jay if it is soooooooo easy and you can do one for 2250.00 than why dont you do a kit and im sure everyone will be beating down your door for it
Ill tell you why your not going to do one because you know it cant be done , It is easy for people like you to sit back and say how high priced things are and go to ebay or where ever you got those prices and say look here it everything you need and it can be done for 2250.00 YEA RIGHT
-Turbo(I assume internal wastegate) $800
***If it is External add another 220.00
*** Gaskets , bolts , fittings 30.00
-BOV $250
-Manifold $800 (Better be a KICKASS ONE at that price)
-Oil lines $150
-Raw piping $100
***Raw piping then take it to have it welded to fit the car 200.00
-BOV and turbo outlet flanges $50
-Silicone couplers $50
-T bolt clamps (For that price..they better be T-bolt clamps) $50
That takes your 2250 kit to 2700.00US and some where here they need to make a profit , Or if you were going to do this were you going to do it for free and just at what all the parts cost
Go ask about anyone that had a DIY kit if it was worth it or if they saved any money and they will tell you NO
One last thing THIS AINT NO HONDA and to say there the same only tells me you dont know what you are talking about , I build a kit for both and the honda is much easier to build with much less bends and tight turns
