I'm pushing 402whp with one from them, but it doesn't say XS Power on the compressor housing.... Been on my car for over a year with no problems, but I'm changing it out in a few weeks for a bigger turbo.

I've seen one or two hold together pretty damn well.

Feel like rolling the dice? If it's cheap as dirt and you don't mind possibly having to throw it away after a couple weeks... ... go for it. Otherwise, steer clear.
