it's a universal I know but I'm being cautious before I order it.

on a side note they include a BOV but don't specify what kind..... I have my own but was just wondering if anyone had ordered this kit and was familiar with it.

will it be a huge improvement over my OEM setup and almost as importantly will it fit easily with no cutting and such...... just being cautious.
 
The core looks very similar to the PR kit.

If I were you I would save an extra $100 and just go with the kit from Punishment Racing as that one is a direct bolt on with short route piping. The kit you posted would probably work with some ingenuity.
 
I took a look at Punishment racing as per your advice but a few questions surfaced.

DSM Intercooler Kits - Punishment Racing - Punish The Competition

the kit in question uses 2.5 tubing, it's rated for less pony, it's $100 more spendy and lastly and please correct me if I'm wrong because I've emailed Punishment Racing with the same question in that it appears while the picture has a BOV in it in the details their is no mention of a BOV just that the tubing is Greddy ready.

don't get me wrong I'm not shooting for 600+ pony, I'm not worried that much about the money (although I want value for that money) and it's kind of annoying that while more spendy they wouldn't include a decent BOV given the universal kit appears to have one..... I like the idea of a purpose built kit over a generic but if all that is involved will be some hacksawing of aluminum tubing while I get more and save more I'll do it.
