    mixing and matching the turbo kit? who gives a fock. my kit has parts from everywhere that i put together myself, so is alot of the turbo d's in the world. as long as its tuned who cares how much u mix up a kit. the only thing what ur saying applies to is if he uses the emanagement, he cant mix the kit. and honestly who cares if he hasnt got a tuner yet its not like the car is sitting there waiting to be tuned, theres no rush better off doing research about tuners then just going with what everyone else thinks. My vote is for james from hondatech if u can get him.

    as long as a proper research is done, then its all good. mixing and matching turbo kits have its own ad & dis-advantages.
    here is a quick list:
    - turbo size vs. extractor diameter (& style of diameter)
    - turbo size vs. engine size
    - turbine blades vs. turbo housing vs. engine size
    - turbo size vs. cooler size/piping diameter
    - turbo size vs. compression ratio vs. boost level
    - piping route
    - turbo size vs. injector size vs. max duty cycle
    - ecu management vs. turbo kit
    - intake & BOV style/location etc.
    - a good reputable turner vs. turbo kit/ecu

    all these variables will result a decent setup or a setup that will last you a few weeks of sprinted driving.

    yes you can, but it take more than just an off-the-shelt ecu managemnet to go with a mixed and matched turbo kit.
    it can be done, and i have done it before with microtech.

    a good/reptuable turner is one of the most important thing when you are turboing a N/A engine from the factory.
    most people would search for a good turner (local area preferrably) and what he/she is able to tune before settle with a make/model ecu.
