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!

Well thats a given on the turbo whenever you deal with them. I didnt say itd be good for that.

Re: EBAY Turbo Kit, Seems like a good deal.

buddy of mine has been running his ssac kit on his y8 for 8 months now and no problems at all. nothing has cracked or anything. hes making 210 hp @10 psi on a conservative tune. only complaint is the manifold design doesnt really help for quick spooling. he doesnt get full boost til 4.5k
