The only thing they sell that is Turbonetics is the turbo itself and turbo internal parts.Ive ordered from them and I highly recommend them.The parts Ive bought from them were cheap in price and the quality was top notch.I bought an intercooler that supports 600hp for $230 shipped and they use Spearco cores but they make the end tanks.I also bought a rebuild kit and flange gaskets.Gaskets were thin and stainless. Not those thick *** gaskets that look like they are coated with the same **** they put on lottery tickets.Those dont work for ****.I also bought some intercooler hoses.Vecco and Jstone sell the same stuff and they are on ebay.They always shipped my stuff with quickness.
