XS Power has actually improved their quality - I just hope you got one of the better ones.
I would make sure to add a restrictor for good measure - not one of the small restrictors like for the GT turbos - that will be too restrictive.

I found the right one. Yea .32 was just a guess. I wasnt sure. But the link I posted is the right size. Kinda keeps the oil inlet to a clean look..
The one i linked up is 1.6mm(.062") restrictor flange.

This is A Great deal on the turbo you got just the better garret couterpart. Just $400 obo one time. Instead od spending $150-$180 twice for the xs power turbos. Im sure the guy woulda took $350. Im thinking of buying to use instead of my monster precision turbo, which i think will be crying for me to build the motor and used later..

I normally hate bashing people on Scionlife, but this guy has to be the biggest idiot I've ever seen post here before. This is going to be THE thread I send people to when they mention ebay in the F/I Forum.
He's like a guy who got the clap from one hooker, and then went down the street to another one because he heard their quality was "improved".
Well, at least you'll be a prime candidate to pick up the RWD tC when it comes out, but you'll probably buy cheap tires and gas and jack that up too...
