You will get a lot of hate for that statement. But it comes from all the close-minded d-bags on here that don't know anything besides overpriced, over-engineered crap. Truth is times have changed. The ebay kits of 2006-07 are not what is out there now. Believe it or not these ebay retailers spend quite a bit of money on research and development. It's just that they have so many kits for so many cars that it takes them a bit of time to eventually get around to upgrading and updating the kits. I mean how could these companies stay in business if their product wasn't worth it?! So many people buy these turbo kits, they can't all be idiots

Save your pennies and buy a used kit from FM or Bell or even a used Gredy kit.

Yikes! Nothing of the sort.

I'm probably one of the least threatening people around. I'm a 27 year old grad student. Feel me roar!

Rather than make a thread to clutter up the forums I figured I'd post here.

Let's say I purchase a ebay kit that is more or less complete with the exception of a down pipe and fuel management.

What​​​ can I do for fuel management with out spending $1200 on a MS?

Is there something​​​​​ that will get me by that's mechanical with proper monitoring with a wide band? I know ultimately that I would want a MS but I was hoping to get something usable in the sub $600 range that would manage my fuel under boost so it won't go pow with 7psi.

I've got​​​​ a 2002 with 80k miles.

Buy a used MS2 for $600 or less.
