I need to know if the turbo's that SSAutoChrome sells say "Turbonetics" on them. I am purchasing a turbo from a guy also selling an SSAC mani, and I need to be sure that Im not buying one of their knock offs. TIA.

no, ssac turbos do not say turbonetics

MooreBoost

Thanks.

Marshall

I've seen a few with a logo very reminiscent of turbonetics' cast into the turbine housing...

I could have sworn I did also. There was a guy at a local shop that had purchased their "special" of the turbo, manifold and downpipe.

I need to know how to differentiate the two ASAP. Thanks.

On second thought, here are pics of the turbo Im buying, please tell me if it is a true Turbonetics. Sorry for the miniscule size. TIA.

doesnt look like to me because turbonetics doesnt have the id tags on the outlet of the compressor

Anyone else?

I thought SSAC bundled "stone mountain" turbos.

Yes, SSautocrap has a Turbonetics logo on the exhaust housing. The rest of it is cheezy as hell and homo. The tag on the compressor says "Turbocharger To4E" and "Turbo ZY". God those turbos are gay.....

i had one of those ssac turbos and i liked it way more than my garrett,you should experience it before you say crap about it.

beepy

I've experienced it. The casting was ****. I actually broke my turbine housing in three pieces just trying to get the studs in.

eg6T

wouldnt that be more your fault?i NEVER had a problem with their turbo

My friend, and myself both love his turbo, i makes decent power on his built single slammer ( 289 @ 14 psi pump gas)

Uh, how do you think I knew it had that casted into the exhaust housing? I had one so STFU. If you say that turbo is better than a Garrett you obviously don't know much about turbos, or your old Garrett was junk, which is probably why you bought a new one :: I also have had the Wastegate and manifold and they are both crap. I know you're sticking up for them because you bought their crap and are tooo proud to admit you got fucked in the ***, but don't try to convince other people to buy shitty parts from that guy. The only thing that isn't fucked is the wastegate. The turbo is ****, the manifolds are ****, and the guy himself is ****.

Shut up Josh, you don't know ****. Give it time. That turbo will come apart. don't make me dig up old pictures of fucked up SSautocrap turbos/manifolds.

Blind-Fashion

****, i typed a nice reply, and i hit close.

Clifnotes, i want a new manifold of theirs for my gsr to go along with my freshly orderd gt35r.

You're going to hang several hundred dollars onto your motor with a manifold that is known to break?
I thought you were running a shitbird manifold?

TURBODC4TEG

i know it must be a good deal but save yourself the trouble and get either a precision or garrett
