$1000 is pretty cheap (turbo and manifold only), although it's not a brand name turbo (not that i have any issues with that anyway). The cast manifold with external wastegate port is also a pretty cool idea too - opens up a whole new range of externally gated turbos to use.

yeah i also was wondering about the turbo not being a big name but after some research i found that DSR turbo is a pretty good quality nz turbo there are quiet a few reviews on them so i thought ide give it a go and its been great... im running the internal gate that comes with the turbo my mate is running the same kit with external both are a good thing.
