Only thing I would worry about it the turbo itself, everything else can do the job even if it's not of the highest quality.

Bubba and Gyllom, please read the STICKY at the top of every page titled "Hey you NOOB".
Also, if you haven't read through the FAQ THREAD on the DIY page, give a good read in there too.
Welcome to the forum.
Then don't forget to use the search key. A title search for "eBay" in the DIY section would reveal this:

If you take a look at the Turbo set-up in the Miata in the picture, it is not the same stuff that is all layed out in the description (I/C piping in particular). Look at the piping off of the turbo to I/C and also the throttle body piping (on car) - Do you see anything that resembles the stuff that they are displaying?
I don't !!!

My bad i didn't post the link! LOL Well after searching the DIY section i still didn't come up with anything about that turbo kit, and i did read the FAQ before this. As far as that kit goes, i also noticed the fact that the intercooler pipes aren't the same as the ones in the picture. Its basically a universal intercooler with a bunch of random bends and couplers which isn't that bad a deal being thats what you use to fab up your own anyways. So basically just being a knock off cheap turbo is the biggest thing to worry about? Which obviously is a big deal cause thats the most expensive part. but the manifold and downpipe look decent.

the DP is 2.5 atleast my megan racing DP is the pic of the system is correct onthe car just some weird custom air obstruction device in front of there car for some reason
The megan stuff works but it is not for the faint of heart. the DP needs tweaking 9-10 times and the turbos are flip a coin every one i have heard of has gone through the ebay 16g already accept maybe a few that don't talk to me. Still the 16g is a wonderfull turbo and properly braced the manifold is less likely to crack on you. BTW i paid that much for everything but i bought the manifolds for cheaper and got a real MHI 16g for my peice of mine still came up under 900$
14B's will also work with this stuff etc. happy boosting
