Looks like with about $2300 or so you can get this kit with a Precision 5031 turbo, Tial wastegate, greddy emanage, walbro 255 fuel pump and some precision 650cc injectors shipped. Tial wastegate I don't think you can buy from this place but just looking on ebay can get it for like $250 or so and the kit will subtract $65 without a wastegate.
It looks like it would be complete then or close to minus getting some gauges and all but no kits come with that anyways.

You'll probably want to replace the BOV with a real one as well. It's going to come with a knock-off of a Greddy RS BOV, and it's likely that it won't even work.

Yeah I might do that. I know the knock off HKS ones actually work really well though. At least on DSM's they do as many people have used them on theirs. I never used a bov on my eclipse though. Too many issues.

Ebay doesn't automatically mean worthless quality as anything can be sold there, but supercheap turbokits from china usually does.
Used quality parts are better than new rubbish.

Well I'm hoping the basic stuff is fine as I will be replacing the turbo and wastegate at the very least. Not too worried about the intercooler and piping or downpipe, dumptube etc and stuff like that.

Says the guy who thinks NA is best. Why don't you buy one these kits then. You are full of BS because I have done it. It doesn't pan out. And I never tried to install it myself. I took the kit and car to my mechanic on the same day
.... haha so says the guy who cant even INSTALL an ebay turbo kit HIMSELF... how can you even have an opinion if you have NO experience with it. NA is best badge is actually my creation, you can go to the naturally aspirated section and check there, I made it, I use it... I also I want to keep my S2000 all motor for several personal reasons I.E. its my ####ing DD and I want to make a point. My boosted B20vtec EG speaks otherwise with an ebay turbo kit. Its cheap and it works, the only downsides are the turbo which is not ball bearing and cheap (made in china), and the cheap wastegates and BOV's. but they work. I have put together two GSR swapped EKs, one GSR integra, and a few D-series hatches all with ebay turbo kits. My buddy who professionally races 7 second dragsters just built a civic hatch with an ebay turbo kit that runs consistent 11.8s on only 15 lbs off an ebay turbo kit and it has held up to countless hours of abuse and is daily driven... also put down over 400whp. SO before your ignorance dispels all these other forum trolls who have no experience that just like to blab and argue for the sake of it, maybe you should rethink what you say since you yourself are exactly as I describe.

Well spoke to the guy again. He said it is an exact Rev Hard replica turbo kit. I asked for installed photos and he said someone in Texas bought the kit recently with the authentic Precision turbo and was going to take photos for him of it installed.
The turbo itself has a full factory warranty and everything else he said has a 6 month warranty.
I think I might have to try this out with the precision turbo.
Would be $1300 for everything including the Precision turbo. Just would have to buy injectors, fuel pump and engine management. So figure like $400 or so for emanage, then $100 for walbro 255 and $250 or so for some 550-650cc injectors. Looks like $2100 or so for a full kit with engine management and all. Pretty damn cheap if you ask me. Would maybe be good to switch out the wastegate as well. He would subtract $65 from the price to remove the wastegate and then like $250 or so would get you a Tial wastegate instead.
I just want to see the installed pics from whoever bought it in texas!!
