Default u were all right.. XS power.. ha

i bought an xs power kit for the heck of it to see if they work. everything was good with the kit except the turbo. from the moment i put it on it smoked , started not too bad but then got worse alot worse. i changed oil drain location to be safe and still no good. i also restricted it and same prob. oil was all in my intercooler piping and all. they are now gonna have to replace it.whether they like it or not..but the rest of the kit was good. manifold and blow off and all that. i temp used a ihi turbo for now . works way better than the xs one did.

No way!!! I always thought they were top notch stuff?


Thats funny that a 15 year old+ turbo works better than a new SSAC.


BTW...they(he) will not even give you the time of day and if you try to contact SSAC to get a refund he'll yell at you.

suck it up and be sure to give him some neg feedback on ebay.

SSAC is pretty much just a Company trying to make money . They dont put quality into to it to save money, so when someone buys their product at their price, they make money? they SUCK
