    I have an 03 Toyota Tacoma 3.4L V6 engine and I want to turbo it. Have any suggestions on what kit I should get?

    The CX kit has been working great for me for 5000 miles. Most people prefer to use the bare bones of that kit and name brand components though, wastegates, BOV, turbos etc. I would tend to agree as a generalization but from my experience the cheap components function exactly as they are supposed to, the difference is they have a smaller window of tolerance before catastrophic failure.
