   the "UNIVERSAL 4 CILINDER TURBO KIT", seems alright, wouldn't pay that for anything branded Universal because more than likely it wont fit anything..

   hmm maybe not to bad, yea i guess some of the parts may not fit, but get them re-worked to fit and you will probs save abit of cash.
   
   Dount its all good quality stuff though, but the most expensive stuff is not allways the "best" stuff

    all looks a load of wank to me. be better just to source second hand parts. if your going to turbo a N/A engine then i would be spending some serious money for the best parts on the market
