I found this on eBay;

Anybody ever heard of this company? This seems to be a pretty good deal - I'm wondering if it's total junk.

Any thoughts?

I think it sounds to good to be true.

only $440 for the turbo, bov, ic, and controller isn't bad. although it might lead to a question of their reliability

sounds legit.. the only thing thats fishy is it didnt say what brand turbo it is and its does have labels anywhere on it.

Hrm... after you win the bid you have 14 days to return it... that isn't good.

It'll take 14 days just to ship to you... you get it... it's not what you ordered, you either have to exchange it or stick with stuff you don't want.


Look at the buyer comments....

One of the negative feedbacks said it took a month to get shipped

Do you trust a place that sells $20 mufflers with removable "Silancers"

I don't see any welds on there... it must be some kind of compression fit parts.

Most of the negative feedbacks were shipping related problems... a few had issues with the part not being what was ordered.

That turbo looks like it might be similar to what SSAutochrome sells... I would stay away from it. Last I heard they were still glueing on compressor housings.

Try to find the parts at a junkyard. I use www.upullrparts.com . They are a 2 hour drive from my house, but the trip is well worth it. So far I have picked up 2 T3 Garrett turbo for about $30 each, a few intercoolers for $20 each, and Bosch BOV for free, a OBD1 ECU for $20, and 2 F22 distributors for $30 each. I also picked up a turbo rebuild kit off ebay for $80 which I probably would not have needed, but I figure this way I will end up with a "good as new" turbo.

yeah there is a picture on line of ssac turbo housing that just sheared off! these turbos look really similar...

however, for the price of the kit you could buy a cheap turbo and still be saving money! :)

that stuff is all knockoff/generic/cheapo shit. I doubt that intercooler is any good, probably the cheapest core ever, and who knows about that turbo. The boost controller prolly works fine, and i bet that blowoff valve sounds good too

yup swap file is right. they are the xspower/ssautochrome/turboZY crap. That is not a Greddy BOV either. finish looks like ass, color matched and photo of actual original product is retarded. If any, just stay away from all this.
