Yeah, Im a bit neutral on the whole aluminum vs. the steel piping.

my guess is that aluminum is more succeptible to heat (did I spell that right? ) but it is significantly lighter.

Nobody is right on everything, so he could be wrong in that opinion.

They never intended for anyone to use the stock exhaust with the turbo kit (which is a flaw in my opinion) but it makes sense powerwise..

How much did your mechanic charge for the installation and how long is it taking?

i'd bet on roughly 700-800 for install of gauges, turbo, and boost controller.

Others would probably charge less....

its taken about a week so far.
