I would suggest a samco kit over a reverse IC kit any day...
Due to my experience blowing up *brand new* stock rubber elbows repeatedly at high boost.
The reverse IC piping kit looks to be a decent upgrade, but the samco kit is invaluable IMO.

Flyby?
yer from tacoma? put that in your location so we can add you to the washington members list... Where you takin' yer turbo to?

I have now updated my location, so you can see I'm not from Tacoma, but am at WWU in Bellingham and travel to Seattle often (once my car is fixed).
I don't know the name of the place, but my buddy Adam works at Speedware Motorsports in Redmond and knows of a guy that will hone out my turbo and upgrade my compressor for pretty cheap. I'm guessing that means like $200-$250 but I'm not sure. I figure that will give me the 'boost' I need... I am also considering a chip, but am not sure.
I am definately going with the Samco hoses in Black both Radiator and Turbo
And am purchasing all new vacuum lines from some place that others in the forum have used.
