what the rest said and it's like night and day driving a turbo tc than a supercharger or full bolt-ons tC, it's abit scary at first but with time you'll get used to how the boost kicks in. just make sure to listen on what the guys at World tell you as your in good hands to where your car is at now, good luck and please don't street it and crash it...

Since most ppl know me or seen my car ... Heres what u need after u get ur turbo installed... Ur going to need a good big brake kit 4 piston n Up... Dont do rottors n brake pads that lame ... Ur going to need it big time if u want to stop fast while boosting.. Also get a good set of coils.. Get ur self a greddy or hks full time turbo timer to cool down ur turbo... This is optional but get an engine damper helps from engine knocking always run good oil too i use royal purple n a k&n Oil filter And last tip... Never never boost in the rain u will forsure crash ahahahaha
If u need more help or advice hit me up ill be glad to give u some pointers

i've owned the ingalls and DME (which is now the NRG that you posted) engine dampers and yes they do rattle alot but your better off going with ES motor mount bushings, speed source motor mounts, and ptuning motor mounts. sure the labor is going to install them is going to cost more than a engine damper but it's alot better as now i have the ES bushings and it rattles less than the damn ETD and isn't as annoying at a stop, if you are sure that you want the ETD than the motor mount bushings then the ingalls would be the one to get as well as the NRG with the race bushings in the damper (that's if they still supply the race and street bushings)

didn't find much info about it except that it comes with replacement bushings as in the same that are probably alread in the damper itself but the pic you posted looks just like the DME one i had so you should be fine for it being $100. Energy Suspensions motor mount bushings cost $40 from dezod.com, you should ask your shop to see if they have a press to do the job and if so how much or ask a few shops to see if they can help you out before you order the engine damper.
