Question F-Max Turbo Kits

This questions was raised in the "Turbo on Civic" thread, and it's also within the Civic forum, but someone suggested I'd probably get more response if I posted it here too, so:

Has anyone had direct experience with an F-Max turbo kit? Their website really makes it look like a better product than a Greddy or a Drag kit, but I wouldn't want to buy something based on the company's own opinion, of course. I've received some responses that said the F-Max kit has an extra injector and betterfuel management, since it doesn't just increase fuel according to boost, but instead uses a type of 3d mapping system. That being said, is an F-Max kit going to cost a lot more and if so, is it worth it because of quality? Would I get the same results by buying another kit, like a Drag or GReddy turbo, and just placing a good FMU in the system? Also, what kind of performance should I expect (based on comparable systems from other companies), and is it really as easy as their website says it is? Thanks guys.
