I've Been scammed
 
so last week i sent this dude 800 bucks for a Garrett t3/t04e turbo, Tail wastegate, and XS BOV. So today I got the package ive been waiting for and to my horror it said XS power all over the box. so i open it and of course its an xspower turbo and a BOV.... but wait wheres my wastegate..;.. certainly not in the box. This guy lives in minnesota... I'll have a link ot the post and pictures up soon... ---- IM PISSED

The parts list for sale, looks just like the parts lists from ssautoshit........Sorry for your loss, but ss sometimes advetises his ---- like garret turbos, hks manifolds and tial wastegate, the add an sty, which people don't know what it means. So you got a garret STYle turbo and will probably get aTial STYle wastegate also. Sucks hairy balls, but as soon as I saw the list I knew it was SS ----.


Post some pictures of the turbo, is it glued together?
