i thought this was funny. apparently ssautocrap is bashing fatboygarage on ebay because fbg is advertising that their turbos are not made in a cave. so check out ssautocrap saying they have the real deal turbos

I guess i just answered my own post since they are bashing each other i guess i won't purchase from fbg either.

LOL. i acutally was there cuz my cousin wanted to pick up a body kit. i checked out the turbos just to see what they looked like 1st hand.


total CRAP

the t04B was seriously undersized with tiny wheels with HUGE HUGE HUGE housings.

the T3t4B didnt even spin freely it would spin 270 degrees. get stuck and then after it hit the housing it spun again and then get stuck again.= BAD BALANCING and bent shafts.

total utter and complete crap.
