There's really only three readily available quality turbo kits these days, right? BP for a single and FI or AAM for twins?

I agree with the single and one of the twins. The other is suspect in my book.......

My choice was BP single for the economics and the simplicity. The ease of install whether DIY or farmed out work out in your favor and just the raw sound of the single coming into boost in every video I've seen. Then again I do things outside the box because I can.

For one, they sent a local guy a kit where the turbos smoked like a chimney and it fell to a local shop to figure out the workaround. The car is a monster now, but they did seem to leave the guy hanging at times. I've never seen a negative word about the other two vendors' customer service.
