83846, Ebay Turbo Kit. Good or Bad? Posted by DanKid, Mar-17-05 08:01 AM
Here's the link http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33742&item=7962166875&rd=1
Even though it's missing a few things I wanted to know if it's a good deal. I got my income tax return last week and want to purchase a turbo kit so I can be turbo'd for the summer. I did a search and saw that most people recommend buying a Star or Hahn turbo kit but I don't feel like spending $3,000.
I also wanted to know if someone could tell me if it's better buying a complete kit or buying it piece by piece. I have looked around on ebay and other sites and have been able to find good prices on the different parts needed to complete a kit. Does anyone have any advice on this??

Yeah. I didn't notice the same kit had already been posted until after I posted. I was going to delete it but I didn't because I wanted to know if anyone had any advice on my second question. Whether it's better to buy a complete kit or piece one together part by part.

83850, RE: Ebay Turbo Kit. Good or Bad? Posted by whodatt1, Mar-17-05 08:57 AM
hahahahahaa and people still buy from him what dumbasses. and to answer your question. If you need to ask if the ebay kit is good enough, you better stick to a well known complete kit. If you want it on the cheap you better know what you are doing.
