What is this kit, and what is it missing?

So I have a local guy selling this kit that was removed from a brz, but this is all that is included... was wondering what this kit is, and what is missing?
Any help is much appreciated!!!

If you don't know what it is, and the seller didn't make it obvious what it is, its probably all sourced from eBay and Wish for a grand total of $200.

If the definition of this photo were any lower, I'd suggest it were an HKS Supercharger with a bracket like that hanging off the turbo. If they aren't advertising the brand, then that's already a red flag to avoid it. Anyone who spent good money on something and tried to resell it wouldn't just be like ' eh just a turbo kit". They'd be like "This is the FULL RACE turbo kit. Comes with the Garret GEN2 GTX3076 with a Turbosmart COMP44 Wastegate, intercooler pipes are polished aluminum and the blow off valve is a turbosmart as well. Kit made 343/286 on 14PSI."

If they're not at least this detailed, I would ignore.

That is definitely a procharger unit. To note, there are no procharger kits for this car, so that's entirely something home fabricated. You can pretty much make out procharger on the actual unit, and it has the strange oval shaped back of a procharger.

I thought it might be a procharger but was too unsure to say. The little rings on the outlet give it away. Good find.

Remember that one time some dude bought a used kit?
Remember how many problems he had with it?
But nah that would never happen again right?

It is missing sufficient information to consider buying.
