It's an OK kit but there's 2 big problems i've seen with it: The kit doesn't have fuel management, which it needs, and the piping and intercooler placement are horrible. You need to cut your crash bar to fit the intercooler (which is removing some safety equipment), and the piping will actually stick out of the false lower grilles.

i did some research and the treadstone kit is the same kit, same everything as the sciontcperformance.com kit but about $500 bucks less. the treadstone kit is really nice plus i add some more goodies to help it out APEXI AVC-R, APEXI turbo timer, SHIFTER ZR3 Laser Jammer:bootyshake:, Autometer Wideband O2 controller. some more part still to come will post more pics up soon.

I would purchase it before you install the turbo.

Don't ignore this advice - you'll get impatient and hate yourself.

I don't know why these fucking companies even offer turbo kits without fuel management - how retarded.

The best piggyback on the market at the moment is the AEM F/IC. I have it in my car and is great to use. Your other option is the eManage, though it costs more for the same features as the F/IC and can't tune partial throttle.

Otherwise, you can go standalone ECU like the AEM or Hydra units, though those cost upwards of a grand to get one of those.

If you stick with the F/IC, you will be in good shape. :up:

Agreed with the AEM F/IC.

This has to be the biggest annoyance when i am shoppin around for a turbo.. some companys have em, some dont... WTF???? it should be a requirement in a kit to have a F.M.

yea i agree. the only kit i see suitable is the greddy kit because it comes with everything you need but one thing. a BOV WTF is up with that. each company is trying to fuck ppl its such crap. they are always missing a piece.
