I found this turbo. I was wondering if any of you had any experience with this turbo before.

That's a nice looking snail. Never heard of the seller. I've seen some of his auctions before though.

Obx makes turbos?!?! lol

Thermalfi'd16: that is another account for the Imfamous SSautochrome.... i found that out after talking to them.

i ended up picking up that obx manifold and im going to see if it works. they guarenty (sp) that it wont crack, so im kinda hoping it will!

BTW: hotrex: your linky doesnt work!

I'm thinking that the turbo is not made by them.

That's enough to keep me off them. My friend has one too. He had to send his back to get it rebuilt/looked at by them....
