looks like it to me, even if there were a few missing things, 700 is a great deal.

looks like one of those cheesy TT kits off of ebay.. take a look and compare

also the fact that he doesn't mention what brand intercooler is included or what brand/size turbos are included would lead me to believe it's cheap china shit thrown into a cheap kit and marked up just like the one's found on ebay.........

I didn't even think about dps... I saw the turbos were internally gated and just clicked the x. you'll make like 350whp on 12psi for 3 months.

Idk. They are t3-t4 hybrids. They will prolly make decent power. It would be a pain in the ass to make up downpipes tho. The internal wastegates on the cheap turbos are a deffinate turn off tho.

The gold round devices connected to the turbos are the waiste gate. Those are to be considered internally gated. Still being t3/t4, look how small they are. They appear that way anyways. I mean if you got the money to spend go for it.

And bwal, internal gates are usually on turbos that come stock in cars... for the most part, not in all cases.

No they are fine but when pushing some serious air most go with an externally gated setup for more flow and control.

Definately a eBay kit. Run the other way. A friend of mine found out the hard way. Save your cash and buy a Hellion Kit, definately a worth the cash.
