actually considering that this kit is famous for lag .
and an off the shelf gt 3040 with similar power output costs $2200 new a custom manifold for $1,000 and a wastegate you could pick up for $300 second hand ( might not be hks but will still work )4200 for lines etc thats $3700

by the time you spend $900+ on the turbo you have a $2800 second hand turbo kit .
so its only $900 cheaper than new . and with a new kit you have a choice of 1.12,0.82 or even 0.68(i think) rear housings
plus you can order different compressor sizes .

or simply order a gcg proven kit that makes the power about 500 rpm sooner

This hks kit has come under some rather severe critisism from turbo magazines and owners of the same kit alike .like many jap kits its the brand name that sells

a simple no thanks would have been o.k offer withdrawn Twisted Evil

This isnt a normal GT Turbo, this isnt a custom manifold, and this isnt a no name wastegate.

It is all HKS. I personally think this kit is worth every cent that wastegate is asking. Genuine HKS manifold. Genuine HKS GT turbo Genuine HKS Wastegate.

That HKS wastegate brand new is worth minumum $1200 from HKS
That HKS Manifold brand new is worth minimum $1800 from HKS
That HKS GT3040 brand new is worth minimum $3000 from HKS

My calculations suggest this kit is worth $6000 if it was brand new, so the value represented here if it is being sold for $1800 (plus an extra 900 for rebuild) is pretty damn good.
