Well, this is nice and all but dosen't realy mean much since it's your opinion based on not owning the kits. I mean I would feel alot better if someone made a writeup that was colabed with people that actualy owned the kit in question. For example:
Quote:
Summary:
I have heard mixed reviews about this kit. People who are using it love it. Some others don’t care for it. This kit also allows keeping of the a/c and p/s. The manifold is cast (not stainless) and uses a heat shield. I don’t know the quality of the manifold but I doubt anyone using this kit will try to push more than 10 psi through it, so it should hold up fine. They also put a 5 year warranty on cast parts and a one year warranty on other accessories.
The first sentance in "I have heard"... that's a little disconcering to me. Non the less, good job writing the info portion up.

Well, I don't have firsthand experience with every kit on the market. All I can do is give my own opinion from what I've read and what I've heard. Feel free to post your own writeup if you want, I just saw that Havok was asking for one, so I did it to help out the new members and let them see the possible pros and cons and make their own decisions.
And, Shoeless, I had heard Mike Stafford was still marketing Celica kits. It was a once available kit and there are still people that were trying to sell them and I wanted to put some info on this kit because people still ask about them in the fi forum.
nope def not making celica kits anymore...I know a guy the HAD the celica kit and it was a piece of &*%$ and went else where for a NEW kit, and if u check the celica forum you will learn that THEY are having as much trouble as the 7thgeners, spyder chat people ect...
Edit: Im not trying to be a b1tch about anything!! It might have come off that way and I sorry!, I just know the guy filed for bankruptcy

good job.....this relly helpful...thankx....i was about the purchase the kit....but not any more... will just buy the parts and put it togather...thankx....
I am currently running the TSI Extreme Kit with a t28 BB turbo and pushing 12 psi on an 2002 EX Sedan automatic. The tranny has been rebuilt using the TCI Auto Stage 2 Kit. So far I've had nothing but awesome driving experience out of the install. Currently i'm awaiting CV axles and then I am going to get into the dyno hopefully so I can post up some numbers. This kit is easy to install with minimal modification to anything.
*note the manifold is cast iron , extremely heavy duty

Hey all, I have never heard of this kit and I keep up on the forums, at least reading, not posting too much lately. I apologized if this has been covered. Anyways here is the website http://www.xclusivecustomimports.com/
I emailed them and they said that they plan on releasing a turbo kit at the end of July for the 7th gen civic. They say its a complete kit, nothing else to buy, but there always is something else to buy. And the best price is the price. They said it would be $2400, and maybe $2200 for an introudctory price. If the kit looks like the picture on their website, it looks like it might now be too shabby. Take a look at that manifold! It doesn't look like some of that homemade garbage I've seen lately. I emailed them back asking for a list of what's included in the kit.
PS i tried posting a new topic for this kit, but it never made the thread when I hit submit, must be some kind of bug they are working out...
so tru!! cause n00bs dont know how to use the "search" button
