hmm..great

[PNS 001_EG3]

its cheap and nasty it may look ok, but it is made cheap and sold cheap. you get what you pay for... all the best

[CB7_OWNER]

I rkn it will last you a couple of days running higher boost.. and prolly a year or 2 running extremely low boost... the kit has all the stuff to make it work.. just how long it will work is the question..

[DC4Integra98]

material is questionable - "you get what you pay for"

[panda[cRx]]

it seems that most ebay kits have issues with the manifolds cracking

i don't think that one will crack, it's a cast iron one it seems like.
lol.
though the turbo will probably fail, same as the bov and wastegate
downpipe will probably crack, the bleed valve will probably leak.
lol.
put it like this
a quality turbo ALONE already costs more than that kit. lol.

[Riviera]

id get it just for the piping and everthing besides the turbo lol scrap the turbo and get
a garret or sumthing

and thats cheap...

my mate just paid $900 to get intercooler piping made up and its only a tiny amount too
but a top QL job polished ali mmmm

Man Dnt GET AN EBAY KIT

you get what u pay for.

theres nothing majorly wrong with most ebay turbo kits. autosalon or hpi tested an ebay turbo a while ago, and it had no problems at all. ran good boost, made similar power to a garrett unit, and was fairly stable. only real problems are that you might want to get your own piping, because ebay piping is rarely straight, and is never perfectly round. aside from that, happy boosting.

You forgot to mention that the manifolds tend to crack, the turbos are best used as paper weights due to their quality as well as the questionable quality of most of the other parts (bov, wastegates etc).
