The kit IS NOT a bad kit(little pricey) but spares you a scavenger hunt. the 3s is great but alot of these kids run thier mouths about but dont have it and dont understand the HASTLE of actually aquiring the engine(how many miles does it REALLY have, was it RAGGGED, will it WORK for 10k miles before something pops) *Sighs* its a good engine but its a royal pain to really get up and running. The burien is a 6psi in a box, no looking for a turbo, a manifold, injectors, pipping, oil lines, nuts n bolts etc etc. Slap on an Intercooler and hit 8-10psi. You might want some pistons, rods if you want higher boost but despite waht people say its not that bad.

yes...but how many years can you get out of it at 6psi?

im not really convinced that the 5sfe takes well to a turbo. it seems like the guys with the STs are having more luck with turbos then the GT guys.
