How fucked up is it when you have to sift through the IMITATIONS of the cloned turbos...
"Damn, did that acution I just won have a good chinese piece of ----, or a cheap chinese piece of ----?"
The only ssauto turbo I've seen was their unbranded 57trim. After 10k miles (i'm guessing there) it had as much shaftplay as my volvo t3 and t3/t04b cheapies that came with visibly worn journal bearings. The only thing ssauto stuff is good for IMO is as a weapon - weather it be your engine or another person you kill with it, its your choice. :1

Ya i had one that lasted about 5 minutes, smoked the center section, then the compressor wheel fucked up the housing (it sounded like a ------- terradacctyl killing itself). My compressor housing was a solid 1 piece cast unit though. I WAS pissed, it was the first piece i bought as i was researching my setup. Long story short, I had Alamo turbo in Kent build me my own turbo with a garret center section and 57 trim stage 3 wheel, I bougt a new REAL Turbonetics exhuast housing, and had them custom machine a B/W wheel and 60 ar compressor housing (in an e trim of course) to fit this ------- bastard of the industry.... IT ------- works great, $600 later, i am happy as hell. I am told that it should be good for 425-450 HP on the f22 im smashing... OH WELL The only thing that were left that werent trashed from the XS power turbo was the exhauast housing....Makes a great paper weight.
The fucked up part is some ------- did exactly what you were joking about, resold it on ebay (probably once he learned it was a piece of ----, sold it to me... And since It didnt appear to be from ssac, I thought it would work fine...
DOOOOOOGH!!!

I didn't have problems with mine. I've been running it for a long time now pushing 10 psi daily. Notice the difference on the turbos thou... and mine has grindings on the bolts meaning it was balanced.

I have an Xs Power t3/t4 t04e but it doesn't look like that one. It's the one with a square label. Is this a piece of ---- or what. I haven't had the time to do it.
