that price includes:

piping + muffler (RAW PIPES INCLUDING HEADERS)
T70 turbo
Tail 38mm wastgate + red spring
Blitz BOV
05 slot style maf + flange
flanges
gaskets
slim fansx2
T clamps
v band clamps
vacuum block
catch can
draw through for catch can
precurved bungs
shorty filter
all welding
39Lb injectors
svt focus fuel pump
o2 sensor wire extensions
ceramic coat (black matte header, silver on the rest)
oil feed line
oil return line
sandwich plate
new spark plugs

I think that is it, everything needed to bolt up a kit.

How in the hell did you spend 3k+ on that list? You didn't even buy a brand name turbo!

Ok so I am buying a 2000 3.8L with 85k, I am now willing to up the waistgate spring to something higher. I have the small red (5.80) and the small green (7.25). How much max could I run on this as a daily driver. The small blue is (8.70) and the small yellow is (10.15), I don't think anything over 9 would be good right?
