Probably becuase this pile of stuff was pieced together by Backyard Billy and his bumpkin crew of inbreeds.

Try venturing into the turbo forum and *gasp* use the search tool. This isn't new.
And by links I mean specific threads/articles/product-listings. Not the VERY WELL KNOWN link to the N/T section of tooners which has next to nothing in terms of useful information.

There's about 90 billion threads in the turbo section on custom turbos. Everyone will tell you not to do it. I say go for it. I was going to then I switched directions. You'll spend about as much as a real kit though, but you get to buy all the good shit in the first place that the kit buyers end up replacing.

just make sure this "custom kit" is not just a stock 420a manifold and a box of parts pulled from a first generation eclipse
a few peoples have tried to screw newbies with "custom kits" in the past
