just depends on what route you are planning on going. what are your plans for the motor and how much power you want from it,

230 NA on $700? good luck.

the manifold you want cant hurt, but i dont see it helping a ton.

If your talking 230BHP for your goal than your can do that but not with $700. But, 230WHP your talking a couple grand just to build a motor.

sounds like a half decent deal if all the parts are quality and not ebay junk.

but thats like half a turbo kit. you still need the intercooler, piping, clamps/couplers, manifold, downpipe, and like a handfull of other little things.

your car doesnt have stock charge piping

im sure you could use most of the DC piping might have to do some magic to get it all to fit properly
