i already know the answer...they suck lol...ssautochrome is a "ebay" branded turbo kit...

here is the thing...i know ppl that have ran them, some ppl have no problems with it, and some ppl have big problems with them...

honestly, the only parts for a turbo kit that i would buy "ebay" brand is the blow off valve, intercooler and I/C piping...thats it... get a good cast manifold, a garrett turbo (or equiv.) a nice wastegate and thats pretty much it... also, in a turbo setup, idk what you are planning on tuning it with buy DO NOT use a FMU!! get an engine management system and have someone tune it

you can achieve 260hp on 8-10psi. if you want to do it right and have the money go forged cp pistons and drop the compression to 9.0 to 1 from what i believe stock comp. is 9.2 to 1. Eagle rods are amazing.. if your going to go with new pistons and rods ARP and either Honda OEM bearings or ACL are a must. if you want to cheap out on the build running 8- 10 psi is fairly safe on a stock block considering it lready has low comp.

I run the Crower 402T Cams and they made a big difference on the top end. I use a Garrett t3/t4 57 trim .63 A/R. I make full boost just before 4K and hold it all the way to 8K. Trusted, true and cheap....57 trim LOL

how much increase in hp and tq did you get using the crower 402t cam?
i was planning using 404s but am leaning more towards the 402t because of tuning issues. are u satisfied with them and how long have you been running them?
