well you also need to AT LEAST buy a set of turbo manifolds

Only need one, not a set...
It is a legitimate kit, however, its a universal kit. Meaning none of the pipes are cut to fit, turbo manifold is not included, may or may not have enough piping, etc. I would be careful buying a "kit" like that, the parts look extremely cheap.

Buy stuff from CarCustoms Ebay! Won't be disappointed!
word of advice...you get what you pay for
I would not trust that wastegate, most likely its a tial knockoff and I wouldn't want to be getting boost spikes or anything, and the bov too is probably a fake. I am running a ebay turbo on my car no complaints, and a friend is running one on his cav for months now with no problems, with that piping I can tell you already if you have an ecotec, you will need 2 or 3 more straight pieces depending on which way you decide to run your piping. Your better off just buying all your own parts and piecing it together, if you have enough knowledge too do so, these forums help alot, read around before you decide to buy a cheap kit like that.

For the record, I was curious and contacted the seller.
Apparently the turbo and wastegate are made in China, think super cheap, obvious knock offs of TiAL and Garrett products. I can guarantee you the wastegate spring isn't as strong as it should be for long life, and the turbo's bearings are inferior pieces of crap.

Well, i cant really help you out on whether it works or how good it is. But i just purchased the SAME EXACT kit for my 2.4L Cavy. And im sure like everyone says, you get what you pay for. ill let you know more when i get it and install it.
