Too much is still not enough!!!!

Anyone know anything about these kits, they seem like amazingly good value for what you get.

I just wonder if they would completely destroy that lovely exhaust note, and make ya jeep sound like a volvo truck?

"There are no installation instructions included.  The install is simple and most customers install it themselves in a weekend.  If you cannot figure it out or feel uncomfortable with the installation, please have a professional assist."

No kidding. A pile of generic parts which might work with a specific vehicle if you know what you're doing and have the skills to mod the motor to cope with it.

#  The T3 turbo flange needs to be welded to an adapter pipe or directly to the stock manifold.
# To run this on a street car, the turbocharger down pipe will need to be connected to your existing exhaust.  Expect to fabricate an adapter pipe or have an exhaust shop connect them.

so not a weekend fitment if you don't have a welding capability.
