I'd compare that to getting a discount Vasectomy. I'd stay the hell away from the cheap half *** kits. If you are going to do F/I, whether it is supercharger/turbo/nitrous, it should be done right IMHO.
Whats the piping made out of aluminum foil ? a great 2V turbo kit will run you 4.5k plus, a decent one like On3 will run you a few grand. The reason the cost is so high is well the Piping. If you are gonna go with a turbo kit then I suggest a reputable one or have one custom fabbed by a reputable shop.
The entire kit is cheaper than the Master Power turbo that comes with the on3 kit, which most people seem to think is a pretty low line turbo. That's before piping, wastegate, bov, etc.
