all I am gonna say is you pay for what you get...

if you know it is cehap then why bu it? when this thing blows your engine 6 months down the road, that is 600 bones you could have spent on something else...

and it doesnt even come with a manifold...just a flange, but that manifold they have pictured is a piece of ****. my firend had it on his turbo D15b7, running on 6lbs...and the whole collector broke in half and the turbo fell while driving it one day...

$600 turbo kit = $600
Finding parts that were left out to install the kit = $500
Blown engine = $1500

Learning not to buy **** on ebay = priceless

there have actually been kits that have come off of ebay with parts glued together instead of welding....... no joke, glue........ and the EMS that they come with is one of the Chips they try and sell you all the time on Ebay that do nothing but rob HP on the dyno....

proven........

buy a VAFC and tune it, thats the best bang for 600 bucks
