I see 3 problems:

1.) Returnless fuel system vs Return fuel system (99)
2.) Manifold wont fit
3.) Piping wont work they had way more room back then

Sorry bro dont buy it!

depending on price iwould say get it
new mani and pipes will get it on there
and then you can figure something out for the fuel system
just run low boost or discconect you wastegate acuator if your using an internal
you can sellthe useless crap on EBAy

whats the price and kit??

save the money and get something that will fit you car, unless you feel like piecing together parts on a turbo set up that wasnt meant for your car, cause its not gonna be easy

Catalyst is just really niceCatalyst is just really niceCatalyst is just really niceCatalyst is just really nice
Buy it, multiply the price X 2 then sell it on ebay. That gives you some cash to start on a kit that will fit properly.

about the only thing you'd really be able to use is probably the turbo itself.

Well, I would say buy it to resell it like Catalyst says, but really, other than the turbo, there is no point. Think of it as an investment rather than a modification. Possibly keep the intercooler, possibly
