i been needing to be boost for the longest time and i was just looking around for a turbo kits. so i came upon this turbo kit on ebay. Yes i know ebay turbo kits are **** but i have seen a couple of cars make some good power out of them. this one heres in about $900 shipped. just wanted to see what you guys think about it. im sure you will make power but how good is the quality(turbo,manifold), is it worth $900, has anyone seen a turbo kit like this before? will let me know. i'm pretty sure that i'm not going to buy it but it is very expensive to piece or buy a turbo kit with top of the line parts. so her she is. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Acura...Q5fAccessories

 

first of all, thats not a full race kit. That kit doesn't even come close to the quality of a full race kit.. That is ssac ssautocrap or whatever you wanna clal it. In general, its another fake ching chong meow turbo kit. I've heard of people using it and making good power; some of them even getting their moneys worth while others are not so lucky. These turbo kits are a hit and miss. My friend has bought one of these and the turbo lasted like 1.5years worht of daily driving. He got his money worth IMO, but i've also heard that these kits are a no no becuase of their reliability.

General rule of thumb is to stay away.

Your sig makes me assume that you have a "fully built" 2.0 b18c1. If this is correct, you should know better than spending 900 on a turbo kit. If you really do have what you claim, then you should be buying a real full race kit instead of wasting your money on these kind of junk kits.

OP dont buy that crap kit, you get what you pay for.

 

ahaha..yeah i was just checking whats on the market...ebay does have good stuff on there and i never said i was going to buy it...i was just wondering what people have to say about kits like this and what kind of power would u make off $900 kits...this kit is pretty crazy looking and has a big turbo too...yes i am fully built and trying to put my turbo kit together but money is the issue...oh yeah has anyone heard of "NSR Technologies" from Albany, OR? they make manifold and i just wanted to get some feed back about them..i am really thinking about buying there top mount...thanks guys...heres the link...http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...Q5fAccessories

 

you could buy my t67

 

its not a full race kit and everyone has different budgets and honestly if you're on a lower budget its not a bad kit. one of my friends had the same exact kit on my b20 ek for over a year and never had a problem with it and put down 300 hp on 16 psi

the manifold never cracked, the turbo held up and never had a problem with the wastegate or bov leaking.

 

Its ebay. can you trust it???
save that 900 and save little bit more.

 

there a guy in my area that has the same kit and i must say that the worst **** i have ever seen, to top it off the top coolant hose sit on top of the turbo exhause housing.... just save your money.....................

 

ebay turbo kit.

that is all.

 

300WHP on 16psi?
that should show you the quality of those turbos and such or lack there of i should say.

 

thanks for the info guys but like i said in my 2 post...has anyone heard of "NSR Technologies" from Albany, OR? they make manifold and i just wanted to get some feed back about them..i am really thinking about buying there top mount...thanks guys...heres the link... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...Q5fAccessories

 

If it's something exlusivey Ebay don't bother. That goes for any product out there.

 

this is a good rule of thumb

this isnt the place to sell your setup make a thread in the honda-marketplace

 

And you joined in '04? Sad.

OP - Wait for a little while longer and save up some more. Full-Race isn't the only turbo company out there. While you're saving up, do some research.

 

and what do you consider fully built? money is the issue... and yet u claim to have a fully built longblock?

lolwat

 

I know the guy who does NSR tech. and I can stand for his quality work. he has a really nice B series top mount right now trying to sell if for a mere $700 and two D series logs for 200 a piece. all his stuff comes with a lifetime warranty to the original owner. I have a ram of his on my car. on my stock b16 I made 288 wheel at 8 pounds. very happy with his work, and tuning is very reasonably priced too. email me if you want his number audi.trevor@gmail.com

 

The wastegate position really bothers me on this ebay manifold. It's too freaking long usually that causes problems so I'm very surprised.

Also what is holding up the turbo by the tranny?? I don't see any brackets do you??

One other thing isn't 300hp on a B20 at 16psi with a T4 turbo kind of low??
