I got DA with Intake. And exhaust. I wanna put this Ebay Shiturbo on but.. I dont think it will last 20 Miles..

slowDB1

do it anyway

All I have to say it, READ. Before you even purchase a turbokit, whether it's ebay or not, READ and RESEARCH for atlease a month or two, every day, before purchasing. So you know every supporting mod you need, proper installation, proper break in, etc...

He is not going to listen lol

If its a ls engine do it, it would only be a 400 solar engine mistake plus watever
You spend on the tune. The best thing to do is put it on get it tuned then find another turbo and swap. BUT make sure you get It tuned. And don't run it hard. Basically I'm saying you have a 30% chance of being alright but at
Least you will learn something I guess.

If you dont care about the reliability of your motor etc, go ahead.

Why dont you get some of the stuff from Ebay like the piping and intercooler and buy a junkyard volvo or dsm turbo and rebuild it then get a cast log manifold, then lurk around the for sale forums and grab up a used wastegate/bov... or wait until someone sells their kit in the marketplace or g2ic for cheap? Nothing wrong with used parts.=, plus its more money for other stuff.

ps g2ic.com is down for the weekend for repairs and mobile app add feature.

Notice it's the noobs telling him to do it. That says something right there.

ive seen plenty and no plenty of people running ebay turbo kits, check feedback and how many theyve sold do the research not everything on ebay is bad, my car is being built from ebay and everything works perfectly so far

Buy two and put them in sequence. Then if one fails the other one will act as a backup. BMW and Porsche do it

RE; operative words "so far".

Have you seen an engine where a turbo has caved out and sent shrapnel into the engine, I have, and it's ugly and expensive, and if you think that can't happen guess again. 94

if you have money burning a hole in your pocket and you just have to spend it on something stupid, send it my way. k series tranny rebuilds are expensive.

putting a turbo on isnt like slaping a air filter on. its more complicated.

unless you have the really crapy shitbay electric turboz on -1psi restricting your motor

Dude really.....

My bad I don't know y'all to well yet

takin8ez

cool story bro. Did you fix that backfire problem yet? If you made a thread complaining about a vital piece of your turbo setup, you've answered your own question.

i just realized OP is the same person that started that ebay turbo thread. so wtf is the point of this thread? you seem to have your mind made up already so what do you want from us? a pat on the *** to reaffirm your stupid decision?

Ok, so eBay I'm pretty sure doesn't MAKE turbo systems. I don't think they say "eBay" on the side of the turbo.

You're ALL jackasses for saying "eBay is horrible, you're stuff is going to break blah blah blah." It's not eBay you idiots, it's the shitty parts you buy from it. You can buy those parts ANYWHERE, you can always find GREAT deals on eBay.

eBay isn't the problem. It's morons that buy the cheap *** parts and say "ohhh it's all eBay's fault."

I'm in a horrible mood today but you ****tards are making it worse. Jesus.

DirtyDA9

Suck my fart, clown.

DirtyDA9

I guess we should say, **** Chinese companies that sell their crapass turbo's on eBay...

ReverseTurtle

Should be "I tried to save some money, just happened to waste it on eBay. Could have wasted it somewhere else, but I was just too lazy."
