Sorry, I know it's not for the civic, but I've been here forever, and I value the opinions of this site as much as I do the Mazda sites...

It's just so damn expensive...what do you guys think? Nothing but good reviews from this company. Turbo Magazine uses this company for their Mazdaspeed project car build up. I mean, it's like nearly half the price of a SF turbo kit. Then I could have 2 fast cars, but I digress...

Your guys' input?

when it comes to dyno gains, we're extremely conservative. During R&D testing, we've seen peak increases of 30whp @ stock boost levels for our turbo-back system. There was no torque loss, and spool up happened ~200rpm sooner. Once boost is increased, gains are exponential Coupled with our FMIC upgrade, you'll easily have 200whp at very close to stock boost levels.

Sounds like a realy well built exhaust system. Just as you said expensive though.... but hey if you have the money then go for it.

BTW: how do you like your m speed? Im currious b/c we have the same turbo.

Hmmm thanks for the input guys...the turbo is great...it has no noticeable turbo lag at all. Just that my plans exceed the capabilities of this turbo, so I'm eventually going to get a T28. Same housing as the T25, but better internals. This is the turbo that comes stock on the SR20DET. Ahh....just need to save about 6 grand, and I'll have enough for everything I need.

Ok you guys are right. Not gonna go cheap on this one, and I'm gonna take the plunge. I'll keep you guys updated. I'm waiting for one of my **ahem**...deals to close, and then I should have some decent money for some mods, and hopefully to finish the bike up.

haha no I'm not a drug dealer...I work in Real Estate, so I gotta wait a long *** time for commission checks to go through...
