I initially bought AVO kit. The honeymoon with it died quickly when I had a few issues with it. I posted a review about the experience in the vendor section.

I had met KAB, the shop that designed my kit, and they had told me they could make me a kit even before I got AVO.... I was like "yeah right...". Well, after having a few issues with AVO, I approached them and they still said we can make you a kit no problems. They had already helped me move on from the AVO troubles fixing it, so they proved there work to my eyes with that.

BEST choice I ever made. I got good prices on everything, mind you, not everything was at cost or gifted, but again, got a great deal on it all. Went form a kit with issues to great quality, great GTX turbo, short IC piping, etc....

The car became what I really wanted it to be. The price difference betwen what I got and what I had spent in AVO was less than $500. I wouldn't do it any other way..... Only thing is I would have gone with custom from day one, but you live and you learn.

It is EXTREMELY important that the shop you choose for DIY is really good, reputable, etc...
