Default 00 gsr turbo question

im looking at the ebay xs power manifolds and the kits that come with it to make a decent daily driver with a stock block, but ive heard some bad things about those kits. the title says Garrett t3/t4 turbo charger but i know they are a knock off brand. what do people think of these kits?

trust me dont half *** anything when it comes to turboing your car it will be more sxpensive in the long run. It dosnt get much better than have a **** ton of power but have it run relyable all at the same time. good luck

search SS Autochrome and you will see. I'm not gonna bash on it, but through my life experiences people with this much bad rep shouldn't be bought from. IMO think of a power goal and budget then piece together your own kit. You'll make the power and it'll be unique

do not buy ssautochrome

this is cheap stuff, not worth it, it will break, won't fit

learn your stuff of turbos before you buy anything

i know that peopel say ssautochorme (XS turbo) is crap, but i have seen it in person manifold cracks!

if you have any specific questions send me an email i have done a lot turbo stuff on my car by myself and have a good idea for low cost options

listen to everyone else who has had experiences with boost. not one person recommends that b.s. ebay turbo kit stuff.
save your pennies and piece a kit together. you will be much happier and save money in the long run because you will start off with all the parts you want and need rather than trying to upgrade a shitty kit with better parts, which i promise you you will do!

even something along the lines of a junkyard setup...

junkyardturbo.com (i think)

if not that, searhc in the classifieds for something used, you should be able to get a good deal there, or as previously stated, piece one together yourself.

either that... peakboost(you wont be able to use your a/c until they release their new kit) or inline pro also makes a very nice kit. Check all three of those out..

I think peakboost is the cheapest, then inline pro, then full-race... all very nice, very high quality parts
