No Ecu... So the engine wont be able to handle boost ... unless you like the sound of your engine exploding...stay away

if you read the description is says it comes with a weber. why would you need a ecu if you are going blow-through?

it does look a little scetchy though

i might be wrong because its hard to make out some of the stuff in the picture, but i think i see a carb next to the intake manifold. but that brings another question.. i thought the second manifolds needed some mods to fit a se.

i emailed him and asked him if he was selling the blow thru and other things about it

and no hes not selling it with the weber and he claims to be mechanic and that itll work.

it wont with without some major portwork on the intake maifold and youll still need custom exhaust manifold besides the whole ecu thing

i think itd be a good buy for the turbo, IC, BOV and piping. it all depends on how high the bidding goes, he told me he has $600 in it and had it running on his car but is sticking with the weber.

I believe that's the TII throttle body. The exh mani will not fit the -SE because the turbo would be hitting the lower intake manifold. The only usable part for an -SE might be the turbo (might need rebuilding and a different manifold), intercooler, blow off valve and downpipe. As other said, there is nothing there to control the fuel. That airflow meter is useless on an -SE.

I wouldn't get it. Spend the money on a good system, buying the cheap thing now and you might realize you didn't get a good deal after all.





Peace-
