New? Does it really look new? No instructions, but new....hmmm? I'd think hard about that before I bid.
I know that you can get a 4cyl 8v or 16v turbo kit brand new for 1500 quid. Not a manufacture specific kit but would be new and cheaper. So I would do a bit of research before i bid on this item.
