I wouldn't suggest it. I don't know anything about ETD, but it suggests cutting of the pipes may be involved and that becomes more of a PITA than you would want. Also not that it has a J-pipe for a Mitsu turbo and a 1G/Greddy bov flange.

Also note that nobody in here knows if these guys test their cores like the brand name guys. True that they get their stuff from the same place as everyone else, but they also have a good rep with them.
You get what you pay for.

Its a decent core,a lot of 1g guys are using it w/ custom piping and making good power w/ it.

It may all look the same but there can be HUGE differences in efficiency range, like they said the piping and bov are all junk, I have a friend who got it and the pipe just keeps breaking. it would prob be better just to get a better one.
