Re: ebay turbo (DA-MAX)
I sold my totally rebuilt turbo on e-bay. There was nothing wrong with it just need to get rid of it.
Some turbo's though I would watch out for. People just pick them up at a junk yard and sell on e-bay and they are ****

It actually looks like a nice turbocharger. I would e-mail them and see where they get their parts from (Garrett, Turbonetics). That's a good price too.

why so worried?? it seems like a perfect turbo...unless its used and severly crapped out you should be more than straight!

Re: ebay turbo (DA-MAX)
that turbo is great for the price you got it if its a grrett which thats what it looks like. i pay more for them then what you paid and sell them for 550shipped usually. it will never see 530whp by 25psi though. i promise you that. is a good turbo for 400whp no problem.

Re: ebay turbo (MotorMatrix.com)
okay, i emailed the guy, and he said it was made by stone racing...never heard of them, but he said that there was a one year warranty. but, if the turbo should crap out, would it cause any damage to my motor as well?

Re: (Tad)
dude, heres the situation...i was searching around on ebay, when i came across this turbo, and there was only like 10 minutes left. i looked at it, and i coulda sworn it said garrett t3/t4, but i guess i was a little tired (it was 4 in the morning) i was tripping out on the price so i bought it. then i went to their website ssautochrome.com and i realized it was an obx company, thats when i got a little scared.

Re: (mattcalica)
I wouldnt worry about the turbo, It should work for you. If I was in ur position I would done the samething. Turbo should be fine for 400 whp. Its the cheapest I ever seen t3/t4 go for. Especially they're giving u 1 year warr.
