How much will you be saving? Keep in mind FSWerks turbo will come with support/warranty and a custom tune. A used kit comes with none of that, maybe a tune if your lucky but something always needs tweaking for your particular setup.
If your saving a few thousand it may be worth it...but if its only 1000 or so then I'd say just get a new one.

Ask what the cash price to have it installed would be, it should save you money( no taxes).

^ Interesting picture to post.
If your unsure about the wear on the used kit have the seller meet you somewhere to have it looked at. There is nothing wrong with buying used I sold my old precision turbo kit to the states and not for too much less than what I paid but it was discontinued and he paid for shipping and was super happy with it and it was nowhere near perfect. All this was done via email and alot of pictures.
