95435, Is this kit ok ?
Posted by ChloRure, Jun-01-06 04:18 PM
Hi, I saw this turbo kit on ebay and wonder if it will be fine ?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=8070569450&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT

The turbo seem to be a little small... but im planning on a 7-8 psi daily car and I will not drag (want fast spool time). Im on stock and will rebuilt it only when it will die.

Thanks :)

I dont see a down pipe, I dont see an EGT gauge, I see no fuel cut defense (mising link,black box,etc) and no BOV flange. Also, no turbo size, no label on the alleged GReddy BOV, no name FMIC (unknown quality and craftsmanship), unknown FPR ( brand and rate help) . Lastly, the line about "shipping will take 1 to 2 weeks" cause hes a very busy person coupled with his 3 negatives in the last 6 months would make me want to get a different buyer.

Personally I'd just bite the bullet and get either a HAHN or STAR Kit, and if your new to this I hihgly reccomend the hahn kit, since their tech support exists.

dont buy it. He looks very shady. He bought that exact kit 2 months ago from someone else. Its missing half the stuff you need and what is there looks cheap.

this look familiar? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=33742&item=8057403473

thats a pic of a hahn kit, not the one he is selling.

Also, that fuel pump could verywell be an oem one, you cant see the markings at all.
