i need some opinions on Ebay turbos... quality... life... anything

 

Google this and you will be turned off with all the horror stories about these turbos. I myself was concidering this but got about a 85% bad, and 15% "eeeeh ok, kind of" responses. Take it from me, be pacient and look for a used quality turbo. I got a used Turbonetics T3/T4 with 1,000 miles on it for 300 bucks here. Plus you will feel alot more confident and comfortable with a quality, dependable turbo under your hood.

 

you get what you pay for, and ebay sells some cheap shit. i would only concider an ebay turbo if it was from a non-commercial user who just wants to sell off his Garrett or Turbonetics turbo

 

turbos are shit. but the fmic and piping will do the job

 

still, the piping is straight and will come undone under high boost. would rather make my own stuff then ebay it. and the intercoolers are decent, for a low hp application.

 

Piping will still need readjusting. I've installed many of these kits for customers. I still had to cut and reweld many sections to make it fit right. As far as the turbo kit itself, search with a key word SSautochrome, xspower, ebay turbo kit here or on honda-tech.

 

me and some buddies used a lot of cheap turbos.. not necessarilly ebay ones but mitsubishi ones and stuff... the garrett t25 is a good small quick spoolin turbo not great for a whole lot of power but cheap and pretty reliable

 

You can find video clips on utube of these things exploding. Theres some where the turbine housing actually shatters. If you hate your car then they're an excellent choice.

 

hey zimzorga i saw you get pulled over one day on the bypass going at LEAST 120. what ever happened?!!!

 

haha
