I helped someone with the install of one of these kits. My points are as follows:
1.) This is a BUDGET kit people, BUDGET. There is a reason why they are half the cost of premium kits. You will have to cut/changed a few things.
2.) Pipe with the BOV flange is a little strange and sticks up a little too far, almost or is hitting the hood depending on where you set your pipes at, but it should still work alright. Be sure to boost leak test and check to make sure the flange is not warped.
3.) Kit lacks a mount for the top. It would be much easier if they charged $5 more and welded one of the included bungs on the top directly in the middle, and included an L bracket to mound to the latch area.
4.) Gather all the clamps you get in the kit, and throw them away. These clamps are prone to breaking. Buy clamps that have a fine thread on the bolt for the clamp.
5.) The silicone in this kit is great!
After buying good clamps, a few pieces of metal, and some nuts and bolts you might be looking at another $60.
This kit does work quiet well though. It took away almost all signs on knock on his car with the help of a water injection kit. For the price for a short route kit, its pretty good. However I can't stress enough that it is indeed a BUDGET KIT.
