here is a small list of dos and donts do be added to later
1. dont go above 7.5 pounds of boost on an fmu (this is to be safe)
2. secondaries makes for a better/more tunable/streetable setup
3. the tune is key to a good running turbobike
ill post more when i can come up with more dos and donts
feel free to ask any ? you have we will answer when we can

as long as you find out the history of it
also you would want to know the brand
there is a few kits to watch out for due to the fueling setup
but they can be changed
also try and check to see that the turbo isnt burnt up

Is this the type of set up you are looking for??? I turbo mustangs a lot & that turbo looks bigger that some of mine. Looks like 76 to 88mm range. PINKY & GSXTurbo will give U great advice & more knowledge than U would imagine. GSXTurbo is a user name to look up in the search. |

they use knockoff parts (which some parts are ok to use knockoffs but they dont claim it to be knockoffs) (not sure what FAST uses) but stedman uses knockoffs on his cheep kit the wastegates if inspected are fine to be knockoffs and the BOV if inspected are ok too but they have used some lower quality turbos and claiming quality (would be fine if told they were knockoffs) |

from best i can tell the F.A.S.T kits use all good stuff but the blowoff valve (if u buy 1) will be a knockoff unless u pay the extra for a tial. he uses garrett turbo's/tial gates/begi fmu(unless secondary's) my kit was very complete and thought out pretty decent BUT some people had issues with getting there stuff from him ect. so its hard for me to recommend him 100%........can only give ya my exsperiance  |

there was a yr or so that TMH used knockoff turbos
usually the header will have the yr welded on it
