I'm waiting for my stage 1 to come in this week, my question is...I have done a search and found that you guys are using the missing link, but the kit doesn't include this and I was told that I wouldn't need it. Is this true? Or should I get it? Thanks

Uh, I could be wrong here...While I don’t have a star kit, I was aware it does come with something equivalent…hence it saying it does….lol

it comes with a FCD and like they said, if you are a 95 you don't need it.

You got screwed then. My kit came with everything that I needed. Granted that was about 4 years ago.

Depending where you got your star 1 kit. I got mines at importparts. My turbo was bad but the people there were really cool about it and will send it back to turbonetics under warranty. And yeah, you dont need the missing link. I, too, have a 95. You'll need extra vac hose like one of the members mentioned and need to get your own boost gauge. Oh, and also extra fuel hose too. GL with it.
