Default s2000 turbo kit choise

Need some suggestion if anyone ever used EMUSA brand. I am trying to build my first turbo application for my 2002 S2000. I have one friend who served in military ordered s2000 turbo kit from speedyracer.com with precision turbo couple months ago, he is feeling happy with the purchase. For the price wise, it sounds great deal. I am struggling which one to chose base on these two products:

Any suggestions are welcomes

Stay away from both those kits. Look in the Forced Induction section and read a lot. Plenty of great info there. Don't cheap out when going boost.

You really have to wonder about the quality of the parts when those kits are that cheap... Good kits run at least twice that, heed the warnings.

Wow, 800 for a full kit. 800 will barely buy a decent turbo, let alone a full kit. I would not recommend either kit.

if i had a civic id take the risk but i would not put that on my s2000.

Appreciate all inputs. After I spoke with my buddy and considering you guys suggestion, I just spoke with them to customize the package only includes Precision Turbo(good brand), Intercoler/piping and manifold , wastegate(that's the mini package I can get). I may consider have different name wastegate, but let me get package first

got more detail from them regarding the turbo/intercooler kit

Will drive there tomorrow to have a real look before pick up from Chicago. Let me know if you guys have any question so I can ask.

Picked the kit this morning. End with getting whole Precision kit, plus catback. Staff is friendly and heard they will have own garage open soon and can help customer build kit, no timeline yet. They allow me come back exchange for free if anything happen within certain period. Thanks all

Looks good with the Precision turbo. Let us know how it goes after it's installed.

I think a lot of people are over reacting. Just because a kit cost a lot doesn't make it better all the time. Just try it out, and let us know what numbers you make and if you run into any trouble with the kit.
