It should be good on a stock setup, as long as you get a complete kit.

axles can take some power, but won't last with wheel hop. If you don't drive the **** out of the car they should hold up for a while.
as for turbo setup, Hahn is the way to go. Great quality product. Remember when it comes to performance you get what you pay for.

Agreed, he stated "Remember when it comes to performance you get what you pay for" meaning Hahn is quality and you will get the best of the best...

at the shop who will install the kits they told me to change the blow off valve because its a cheap one and gets en HKS SSQV blow off, i know its the best blow off on the market but do i need one like that for a 8 psi turbo kit... what do you think about that... keep the original or change it and for witch one?

yeah, stock internals still. Tons of misfires though with new plugs. i think my tune got thrown off with the cold weather like i thought it would and the tuner said it wouldnt happen.
