Most all "kits" on the market are made so that they are bolt on and suit "everyone". Therfore most of these kits will not make good power as they will be very conservative and use smaller turbo's, poor tuning managment such as FMU's, small IC piping and downpipes so it all bolts to the stock equipment, etc.

Look into what greddy, hks and many others who already have them available and see what the difference would really be in custom makeing it. It may be cheaper to go with theirs.

All depends on what materials are used as the prices drastically vary. Idk if you are already gonna have a manifold and all the wastegate setups stuff or not.

How the FMIC is laid out where the manifold positions the turbo, and what materials are used.
