Search the archives for "eBay turbo" and you'll find all the information you need. In short, no, they aren't very good.

Some of them come with fairly descent parts. A friend of mine bought one for 900$ i think, came with a Turbonetics Turbo and wastegate, and a descent intercooler. The manifold is **** though, don't use the manifold.

i was wonedering the same thing, but found most of the kits for about 900 bucks come with a garret turbo. the only problems i know they have are the turbo manifolds, they are crap but the rest are good, so maybe you could buy the kit resale the manifold to some sucker and buy you a good manifold
