theres your answer. if your pistons are rattling that much, and you still drove the car, mechanics mistake or not, you had a hand in that motors demise. and if you dont know much about custom kits, why would you try to build one? and if the greddy kit had nothing to do with killing the motor, why not reuse it? if you already bought it, its not a bad place to start. you asked for advice, just because the advice i gave you wasnt what you wanted to hear doesnt mean im insulting you, it means im giving you advice. its YOUR problem if you dont want to listen to it. if you dont know the first place to start building a custom turbo kit, then its probably not a good idea to try to build one. this, like many, many car related questions has a simple answer- if you have to ask about it, you probably shouldnt be doing it. if you dont know about custom kits, and have not taken the time to educate yourself about them (like read the sticky i put up in the boost forum that goes into great detail about what and how a turbo kit is) then building one is probably not a good idea. and if you already have a perfectly good kit that works and is complete, there is little reason to sell it unless it doesnt specifically meet your needs/goals- another thing that is absolutely key to choosing a custom kit which you failed to mention. i could keep going, but you get the point. boost isnt for everyone. and judging by what youve posted and how you reacted to me, you are probably one of them. that is not an insult- that is an opinion and a suggestion, which is EXACTLY what you asked for.
