I think the DRAG kits suck ass. The Turbonetics T3 isn't all that it's 'claimed" to be, the normal kits come with a suck-ass Deltagate wastegate, the downpipe has to be welded up (bolt-on my ass), and it doesn't spool until really late. I dont think it's worth the money, but it is one of the best looking kits around. If you own a Civic, however, you'll have to notch the support on the underside of the hood so the wastegate won't hit it. That's not a "bolt-on" kit if you ask me. It's a kit manufacturered by someone too lazy to do the research and fabrication that would make it a bolt-on kit.

That is why I'd go with the tial 35mm waastegate. I heard that the delta wastegate sucks ass too. If you get the drag kit you'll need 310cc injectors, tial wastegate, better fuel pump....and I heard the manifold wasn't all that good either...but what other manifold would fit? And if the turbo that comes with the drag kit sucks....what other turbo can fit to that manifold???? Would the new garrett GT series fit?
