Is this turbo setup good?

Default Is this turbo setup good?
I saw this on ebay and it seems to be a good deal considering that it will run properly on the s2k, what do you guys think? What issues should I consider, any thoughts welcomed?

It was built as a World of Wheels show car and to my knowledge never ran under turbo power.

If the turbo is installed then why was it never run? Was it a trailer queen. This is the same turbo, b/c the guy sold that car also in an earlier auction.

It was a trailer queen. It was pushed from trailer to carpet and back.

Is it just me or are those exhaust manifold tubes a little small?

Blowing the engine has little to do with the physical kit. It's the tuning that is important.

Thatt said, the FMIC is junk so I expect the rest of it is also.
