After all your extremly helpful advice about which turbo kit ot go for i thought id pick your brains again.

Would you please give me your honest oppinions and let me know which kit will work or send me a link to somehting else.

Aren't those all the same?

If the pictures are accurate, there's a variance in the included bends.

All are of tube-n-fin construction. Less restrictive (relative to bar-n-plate) to air flowing through to the radiator, but more restrictive to air passing though from the turbo to the intake.

Viper

so would you recomended a bar-n-plate construction over a tube-n-fine construction or is it a very small difference?
let me know what you think of this kit also with bar-n-plate:

if you make the turbo outlet point down, then yes.

I used a universal flex hose myself.

Viper
