the fact that it's off ebay isn't even the issue. Unless you have an upgraded tranny, forget any sort of FI on the 3.0

Looks like almost the same kit, the only concern i have is that the piping is for the accord, which has a whole different frame than our cars, so the piping may not run right, but def a better option that that xs crap, also looks like most parts are universal so who knows, however I wonder when I see this disclaimer "Additional piping might be required and/or modification might be needed"

I just wonder about the quality of the turbo timer and such, because when I look at other crap on their site, it's all cheap generic crap

do they expect the CL'ers to purchase this kit with the trannys we have?

Is there any way we can strengthen our tranny? besides the cooler

ROFL, "easy" and "manual swap" don't go together for our cars.

to be honest, i've thought of getting a business loan, getting a welder and tubing and start making stuff (turbo kits & intake manifolds) for the 3.0's, but the tranny issue is just to much of a hurdle.

That is the most complete kit I have seen on ebay or anywhere If I did'nt have what I have I would do it. It comes with alot of shit. All I had was 2 turbo's and a couple of wastegates...

yea. i would buy it but our trannys are crap. i was thinking of swapping for the J32A2 (3.2 CL-S) and the 6 speed trans, but it would be a lot. so if anyone comes up with a good way to strengthen our trannys, deffinetly count me in1.

1. Buy a Dr. Evil transmission
2. Rebuild the current tranny with stronger clutch packs and a better torque converter.
