yeah I wouldn't run any turbo on a FC without a intercooler. Cheaper in the long run to buy a complete t2 motor and do a half swap.

$3200 (shipped) for a complete kit? Isn't
it more worth it to already have an NA FC and just buy a TII?

worth it how? while a tII motor would probably be cheaper... you have to add all the extra stuff your going to need.. an fmic or a tII hood .. fuel pump .. engine management/or a harness and ecu.. the bolt on kits are ready to go.. although ive never tried it.. you need to weigh your options

To my knowledge, no one has ever bought this kit. Their numbers are suspect, as are they're "testing" procedures on the website. I also don't believe those are actual pictures of the kit (they look like another forum member's old setup).

Yea not to mention the engine is BUILT for a turbo with a TII your shortening your NAs motor life with a kit, although it will probably be faster its not worth the extra money or reliability loss IMO. For $3200 you could buy a TII and mods to go with it !
