nice to see that yours came with labeled packaging, my shanghai-S came in unlabeled bags with a bunch of missing pieces and a bunch of extra pieces, lol
thank god for ace-hardware

im just waiting for the parts list to be emailed to me by begi, but so far it all looks good to me!

the parts list was, so im waiting for begi to email it to me.
I do know the inlet pipe is missing but i knew that and they are sending it to my home address in the UK free of charge when it arrives from powder coating.
Idont know if im missing anything else although i got a gauge pod for my boost gauge for free! was a mistake

I started installing my S2 kit a couple weeks ago. So far, I've had missing:
Turbo to manifold studs, nuts, and washers
Oil feed line
Wastegate actuator circlip
BEGi did make everything right in short order, which is cool considering I have been sitting on the kit for almost a year and a half. They also agreed to modify my 1.6 downpipe for a 3" exhaust for free for my troubles.

I really meant the labeled bags as a compliment to them trying.
I DID NOT want to turn this into a bashing thread.
They did a great job of fixing my missing parts:
silicone couplers - overnighted
(2) IC elbows - fabbed, powdercoated and overnighted
brass oil drain fitting, mani/turbo bolts, heat shield bolts - sourced myself
It's good to see that the Shanghai kit gets as much attention as all their other products as far as parts bag labeling and organization. The complete kit idea has to be a good seller for them.
