Same here. Reliability is eveything. And I've learned something working for my buddies shop part time. He owns Ballistic Motorsports in NH and if you plan on boosting your non-factory boosted car you should have at least double what you spend on your kit set aside. Basically if you plan on spending $5K on a kit you should have another $5K set aside for when something happens. Because it is inevitable that something will go wrong. you can't spend all kinds of money on boost and expect everything to be all peachy on your first shot at it and expect your car to last like it was factory. If you are complaining about the cost of a quality kit then you should NOT even be considering boost at all. Plain and simple.
