Think lee may disagree with you there.
Although he has a few extras fitted i think.

I still think you could put together a kit of brand new parts for under 3k that would make around 250bhp.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

Exactly, I think he said all he has left is the turbo and manifold?
...neutiquam erro.

Having spoken to Paul via email today, they haven't stopped making the kit.  It has been taken off the site as they need to find a new manufacturer for the manifold and this may take some time.

Currently I have a few options:-
Wait for the whifbitz kit
Buy the The BLF one
Go my own way and build my own kit from bits and bobs sourced on the internet

Choose your manifold first then decide which turbo to go for.
After that it is engine management.
Choose intercooler or charge cooler then its a case of plumbing it togethet.
Or you could wait and see if the guys get a supercharger kit going.

I do like the idea of the supercharger project and I'm assisting where I can, but as I'm going for the MRS200 body conversion over the winter I really need the turbo kit to do it justice. Can't have a Group B tribute and not have wastegate chatter and flames.

To do that bodykit justice youll need a built engine and a gearbox swap.

Yeah a twin turbo 2GR would be a good place to start.
1MZFE, Emerald ECU, LSD, BC coilovers, custom middle & front under brace, F / R strut brace. Slotted discs & yellow pads, Blue flame exhaust.
Carrera leather seats, Davids bars, Focal subwoofer & voce speakers & bling !
TRD Stage 2 F & R spoilers,  Haltezza bonnet, C1 side vents, JDL rear panel
