there is no drag gen III kit. only the drag 2. the 3 is supposed to come out soon. With that being said, get the fmax or wait.

www.f-max.com

drag doesn't have a site right now.

I'd go with fmax, and I'd replace the crappy map check valve with a missing link for like 50-70$.

Also, I have an MF2 and the 2 440cc injectors I could sell you for about half of what they'd charge you for new ones if you wanted to save a couple hundred bucks.

whats up , Doest the mf2 and injectors come with the kit already.. I thought that they did.. Im not sure.. let me know.. Oh and did u do any bottom end work to ur lude.. thats what I am doing now...

Yeah, but you can modify the kit, like add/subtract things. I currently have a stock engine, next year I'll be over-engineering the bottom end to run 12-15psi.

theres a huge amount of talk about turbos on the board. Use the search feature. if you do a search on posts that i've created you can see all the troubles that i went through with the drag kit.

Im pretty sure I am going with the f-max, It will be a couple months though, because I am going to be working on the bottom end from now untill fall, then all winter I will be gettting the f-max hooked up.. Hey, I live in the Chicago area, do u know of any gooood shops that could hook up my turbo and tune it and all that good stuff, I really want to find someone that knows what they are doing and not just doing it for the money.... How much boost do u think I can get it up too if I do all that bottom end work.. thanks

Try Sound Performance (aka, "SP"). Don't let the name fool you...they first started into car audio, but are more into turbocharging. A couple of people from my area had their Lexus SC300s turbocharged there. One of them now has a 662whp SC300. One of the other guys I know had his Supra TT modded there, and with a single turbo, pulls 600+whp.

They mostly work on Toyotas, but they do Hondas every now and then. They're based just outside of Chicago.
