Item Condition: Brand New Never Use
lol It even say's in the action to "never use".

Competable with any AC/Power Steering Wheel
Sweet, it's compatible with steering wheels.

Adjustable JDM Turbo Boost Controller.(1-30PSI)
Since when can a manual boost controller make the waste gate open at 1psi?

Exactly bro! All anybody has to do is go over to http://dsmtuners.com/ or http://www.dsmtalk.com/ and do a search on SSAUTOCHROME and you will see how many people have complained about there products in the DSM community.

I for one will never purchase anything from them because of it, and I haven't to this very day.

Tried and proven stuff only goes on my vehicals.

IMHO I think that there one of those companies, that if it sounds to good to be true, it ain't.

You should only purchase from companies that are well known for there quality of products, and not ebay crap, or unless it's from an individual that he or she is selling that's a used product that's from a reputable company.

I will admit that some of SSAUTOCHROME's stuff looks good, but just because it looks good doesn't mean it will perform good, and last.

Some people may get lucky and some people won't, but from my reasearch there have been more people that haven't been so lucky with there products.

Keep in mind that you get what you pay for!!!

Seems like a good deal. Decent parts...silicone couplers, piping, intercooler. That manifold looks legit even with the heat coat.

no, it is garbage!! I ended up with one of their "t-70" turbos, and it was crap, the compressor housing was glued together and not even glued flush, it was off by quite a bit, it was brand new and the compressor wheel didnt spin very freely at all looked as if it would grind its way into the housing very quick. Needless to say i got rid of it very fast! And dont get me started on the manifolds. SSAUTO just takes advantage of kids that dont know any better!

this one seems to be the best deal, $940 shipped comes with pretty much everything that im looking for in a turbo kit. its just all knockoff stuff...i might invest in it to show you guys that ebay stuff isnt so bad

from what i have read i wouldnt trust any unbranded parts except for the intercooler. but thats just me. personally dont want to waste my time OR the Money ill be paying for "cheap" parts ill have to replace later. might as well buy used. at least you know something about the product when its used. hell if you want to by ssac/ebay crap im sure theres someone here with one in there back yard all used up for cheap lol.
