Re: Ebay Turbo Kits (7mile)
i have one of those havent installed it.. its a home made turbo at best.. i was bored so i bought mine but piecing your own together would probably be the same difference.

I would probably stay away. XSpower and SSautochrome have terrible reputations, just save another couple hundred and get a greddy kit, or piece together your own and spend that much and have it fully tuned.
Do a search for ssautochrom or xspower to see what I mean.

Re: Ebay Turbo Kits (7mile)
people say that the manifolds crack as well as the turbo splits in half because of the way they are constructed
and ive heard that the blow off valves,intercooler,piping and wastegate are decent but your better off making your own kit or finding a good price on greddy
also that kit comes with no oil line or any type of fuel management which will run you 200-300 and it doesnt come with any goodies like a boost controller/boost gauge/a/f ratio gauge so with the money you spend on all this you can easily buy a greddy kit w/ intercooler and turbo timer
i pieced together a full kit for about 900 and about 250 on engine management
(afc hack and dsm 450cc's)

Re: Ebay Turbo Kits (7mile)
ssautochrome and xspower are garbage, you'll be satisfied with the greddy kit. too bad you werent b-series, i have a b-series kit for sale with a much larger turbo than the single cam kits
