    why not just use the c2 kit

    i dont understand why we cant use the c2 kit. i mean the exhause manifold is the same for the celica gt and the matrix. what would be the problem of using a c2 kit. the only thing that would be different it piping????

    wow anyone know a good conversion for dollars to euros?

    well i found a site to do conversion and here it is

    Celica gt Kit
    3590 Euro
    4315 USD

    Stage II Upgrade Kit
    1890 Euro
    2272 USD

    Vibe/Matrix kit
    3490 Euro
    4195 USD

    i checked these figures with a few differenct currenty exchange sites and got only a few cents difference between them all.
    Seems kinda pricy to me for a turbo kit where the piping wont fit....i say just go customer for over 4k.

    lol i anwsered my own question in the same reply. i didnt realize by replying again it would just tack it onto my last post.......

    well i did some more research on c2's site and found a post from c2power himself saying they are trying to up their customer service and sales here in the states and due to some Euro tax stuff the kits would be the same price in USD that they are listed in Euro's so more or less ignore the conversions i posted /\ there.
    hope after all that i helped someone out......

    yeah, that won't bolt on at all. the exhaust manifold will BOLT on to our head but it won't clear the firewall and the downpipe will probably not mate to our existing exhaust. another thing is that the IC/charge piping will not fit either. all in all, not worth it to buy a kit for a celica and try to adapt it.
