he said he would ORDER it for you? wtf...sounds like a scam. and thats on the expensive side of those parts. just do some research and buy your own. i built the whole kit with injectors tune and Everything for about the price you would have paid for that.

yea it DOES sound like a scam if he'll order it for you, obx and xs parts aren't the best parts you can get..since you are local, you can piece your own kit together for way cheaper, i got a friend who owns a shop, ADVANCE STREET PERFORMANCE, he does everything, from making headers, manifolds, tuning, just about everything you want..he owns a 300+hp NA k series and took second at BOTI..let me know if you are interested, and he'll be able to get you a good price..
i recommend you buy your own turbo, let my friend make the manifold, downpipe, dumptube(all life time warranted) he does intercooler piping as well so if you want him to do most of the kit he can, his work is really reliable and he is a really cool guy..cares about doing a good job rather than getting alot of customers and just half'n everything

Actually, the OBX ram horn is pretty solid. I have seen one at my local shop.. as for the other stuff, just like ^^ said, Its best to do it right the 1st time.. Actual turbo parts arent cheap, and the T3-T4 is probably a ching change knock-off..

yeah it sounds pretty sketchy to me....first of all, dont buy a kit....you should try to find the parts piece by piece.
