Default What Are Some Problems With The Rev Hard Turbo Kits?

ive been reading a lot on the previous topics about the rev hard turbo kits, but aside from what appears to be a bad run of manifolds i cant find any real problems to warrent avoiding their turbo set up.

apparently though many people seem to have the opinion that they are bad, crappy, ****, etc. but aside from word of mouth i cant find any evidence thats in their favor.

so if anyone has any information, aside from a faulty manifold, on reasons to stay away from a rev hard kit could you please inform me?

thank you in advance.

I've had mine for over a year and it's holding up fine.

The only marks against I can see are:
-Intercooler piping is deliberately longer than needed, so you have to cut it
-Oil feed line is barely long enough to reach turbo...has to go over the block instead of around the side
-Ram horn manifolds simply work better -- spool-up is faster, overall efficiency is better (more power). This is probably the main reason why they aren't the most popular around here these days.
