as well as that turbo looks like a china knock-off, not to say they wont work, id love to get one and test it out so i can put all the rumors to rest.

I have an ebay turbo, 3 months running strong..all my other parts are name brand though, fmu, bov, wastegate...... I just dont know about trusting those knockoff wastegates or bov's is all..

if you trust the turbo why not trust the wastegates and bov? they are actually a more simplistic design and harder to @!#$ up, the one thing i dont like about the china turbos is they say they are a certain size but i cant trust that and i want compressor maps.

Ive got 8,000 dollars into parts on my engine alone so i want a good turbo... But thats not my concern. Im lookin to get the eaton m62 to replace my vortech charger.... But if i can find a kit that has a good t3 flange manifold, proper charge piping, oil feed and return lines, then i will buy it and go turbo.. Then buy a good turbo. Since im spinnin to 8,000rpms i think the m62 will get maxed out on me.

Damn, if you have that much into your engine, then I think you wont have any problem getting a turbo through an authorized dealer rather than ebay dont ya think? Then, you wont even have to question if its a good turbo or not.

Yea cept im out of money.

I mean i got the thing tuned for NA (pulled the vortech off) and it is good for at least low 14's as it sits....

But just like everyone else in the world, once youve experienced boost you will never go back.
