There r so many turbo brands to buy..I mean u can buy a Garret gt28rs for just the turbo for about $1000, but you can go on ebay and find a gt28rs with a manifold for $500 with a yr warrenty. I mean a turbo is a turbo right? or wrong? Just wondering If anybody can tell me a lil more that would be great..I mean would you pay an extra $500 for the name or what?? Thanks

 

Don't ever buy an eBay brand turbo.

If you search around here, you'll hear horrid stories of it being glued together and such.

There are plenty of brands (Greddy, ApexI, HKS..) but you should never pay less than $1,000 for a new turbo, unless you have hookups.

It's like buying a eMachine Computer Vs. HP or other high end brand.

You get the point.

 

yea i definitly got burnd spend the money the right way first and ull save your self some money, i bought that ebay turbo for 500 then i had to buy a new one for 1000 so u get the point hopefully...but in cars u pay to play

 

Always remember that! nothing good comes cheap when it comes to cars, unless its broken.......lol

I would say only buy these brand name turbos

HKS.........My Fav. Turbos
Greddy
Apexi
Garret

And stay away from SSA turbos or XSPower Turbos or any other E-Gay Non Name Brand turbos..........

There is a thread in KA-T.Org about some guy that bought a E-Bay turbo and it was held together by superglue!! I was like WTF, but he showed pics of it, and it really was held together by glue.....ill find the Link and post it later on tonight.

 

garrett

 

Here is what happens when you use (Ebay)SS AUTOCHROME DONT buy this.. Some dude on Honda Tech had this happen to him

 

wow, i could make something better at home lol

 

i have had good luck with master power turbos. they are made in brazil and work well and havent heard of them failing on a forum yet. they are about 600-800 dollars.

 

i believe this came from one of those SSAC kits. if you look at the pic..it looks like that sh** was glued with epoxy or something......NO good

 

Blitz is pretty good

 

HP is "high-end"? Wow ...no, no, no, it's more like eMachine vs IBM.

 

Still wrong.. I'm a tech at a local computer store here, our computers are superior to all other proprietary POS's Get real Get Red Barn www.redbarncomputers.com!

 

no brand name is High end.

You build your own.

I was making a point..
