i have a question what have people heard about turboxs turbos good and bad and also about turboxs and ssac turbo manifolds. im possibly gonna buy a turboxs super t70 (i know the turbo is huge for my car) and a ramhorn manifold from a guy for $400 along with 38mm wastegate and 3 inch downpipe. Go for it or stay away from it????

There's a lot of information about them in the Forced Induction forum.

I would stay away from the manifolds and turbos. The manifolds seem to develop a lot of problems with cracking and the turbos don't last too long before needing to be rebuilt. I do know of someone that went over all of the welds on one of those manifolds and it has held up fine. Unless you have the ability/resources to do this, you're better off picking up a used manifold from someone on here in the classifieds. Also, there are plenty of good deals on turbochargers on here. Hell, I sold my SC50 that was pretty much brand new for $350.

 

thanks
