Anyone got TSI turbo kit?

Anyone got or know anything about the TSI turbo kit from turbokits.com? It's spec for the d17, only one on the civ page i think. I was thinking bout ordering it tom. Anyone know if it holds up to our high civic expectations?

I have the kit on my car, personally I would wait on something better to come out. Everything is mediocre at best with that kit.

The T25 can make more power than that. Whoever told you that was probably not using a boost controller.

you could probably upgrade the turbo to a gt28 for more power too...
