Which turbo kit?

Okay, I am interested in either getting a turbo kit or fabricating some sort of kit. I am leaning towards the kit b/c everything in a kit is usually tuned and ready to run for the most part. I don't really want to risk blowing the motor (which I JUST swapped in) because of some part that I get wrong during the install

Now as far as I know there are basically 3 kits to choose from for the KA - FMax, XS Engineering, and NSport.

pricing for the nsport kit and xs engineering kits seem to be near $3500, while I am getting quotes for the F-Max kit near $4000 where the JWT ECU is not included.

What are everyones comments on the subject? I know TY runs the F-Max kit and it was originally installed by one of the guys who is now with Intense Motorsports afaik. The NSport kit is quite cheaper, comes with a Skyline FMIC, and doesn't require a computer change (just upgraded fuel pump and FMU) I have seen a lot of positive posts on other boards regarding the NSport kit.

I don't really think much of XS Engineering - that kit looks like crap compared to the other two.

My only concern with F-Max is the wait for the ECU from JWT, which I have seen people quote a 6 month lead time. I am leaning towards the NSport kit..
