thanks. its actully a budget build to tell you the truth.... the turbo is probably going to get changed so something a little better. i was doing some research and the garret/perkins turbo is decent but not to much of a upgrade from a stock s5... i got a good deal on it so i dont care but eventually ill have stand alone and running a gt35r

kicker of this build is i have no more then $2000 into it right now car and all mods and im actually making $ off it lmao!!!!
