No its not BS, but you have to be careful. Two things to consider:
- That manifold's welded joints will probably break
- You still need intercooler piping, injectors, software, and the list could continue.

Yes its bull ****. You get what you pay for, and all of that plus an FMIC for $500. I don't think so. I decent FMIC costs close to $1k alone. Not to mention what are you going to use for tuning? Steer clear of any kits like that. The most important part of any kit is good tuning, and there is none with that kit.

Good points! If you want a TDO4 go to DSMtuners they sell for 100-150$ all day while your there get a Lancer EVO FMIC for 150$ all day long. the rest you can piece together.......
