BNR.

Don't know much about CX racing, but $369 is too cheap for a T70...

Few grand for a good turbo? You can pick up a Master Power T70 for under a grand. And I haven't heard much bad about master power unless its an ebay replica...

i wasn't talking about a turbo alone, i meant the whole cost of the other upgrades (fuel, ecu, manifold, etc etc.) you know.
