Yeah, stay away. That kit won't be so cheap after you find out the turbo doesn't work. If anything, I'd only buy the turbo manifold and fab/piece everything else. You would probably save $$$ if you just go with a Greddy turbo kit. Hard to beat the price for an intercooled turbo setup with fuel management.

Ah that turbo might be one of those turbos that has a 100% fail rate. I forgot what forum I saw it at, but a guy got a turbo like this one and some of the turbo was glued together.... You get what you pay for.

The kit would be a "OK" starting point. The turbo can be a decent unit just get it looked at by a reputable shop and look for weak links in the design. I have seen some ebay turbos with Garret internals. These were actual Garret internals with a cheap casting for the turbo. Just look for issues before you dive in. All and all I belive with a little bit of time and hard work you could have a diy built Tc for around the price of a Greddy kit.
