Anybody have exp. with ebay top-mount turbo kits?
Just recently saw these pop up all over on ebay and was wondering if they were any good..they certainly look nice, and aren't that expensive..yeah, i know you get what you pay for, but people have actually had success with their ssautoshit kits (dunno if this one is made by them), so give me some feedback if you've had this kit..

Re: Anybody have exp. with ebay top-mount turbo kits? (prada_G)
another thing i noticed is every other top mount kit i've seen for hondas has the turbo sitting on the other side of the motor..would the heat from the turbo effect the charge pipe temps.?

Well, if its anything like the other SSAC stuff, I wouldn't expect it too last. However this is probubly the best designed manifold to come from them that I've seen. It would almost certainly crack if the turbo wasn't supported somehow though.
Would I buy it?...no.

that's just crazy,
it went for 400 freakin dollars!
how can those parts POSSIBLY last?
it's already been proven that these cheap pretty looking ebay kits have serious durability/reliability problems.
And when I see something like this, that if it were built by a known brand company with quality parts, it'd probably run you.. what.. around 3grand?
and it goes for 400 here?
there HAS to be something wrong with it.
At the very least I would weld on a support that goes from the manifold, under the turbo, and bolts onto the engine block somewhere. That would probably take a huge ammount of stress off the manifold.
