ssautochrome...xspower
 
i know everyone is DYING to know what happened since they are no longer on ebay..heres a copy of the email with links to the new site..ahhahha

As a past or present customer via our eBay store we wanted to
inform
you
that we have now moved off of eBay and have a brand new
website
with
low
prices as they were on eBay. You will find the new store
here:

http://app.infopia.com/Shop/Control/fp/SFV/31982/page/a

You will find the new store to be easier to navigate and the
prices
are
as
low as opening bid prices were on ebay, if not even lower.
Plus
there
is
no
waiting for auctions to close any longer. So please check us
out.
If
you
have any questions you can email xs-power@ssautochrome.com.

Our older sites are still open as well...www.ssautochrome.com and www.xs-power.com
, the prices are still being fixed so if you see something you want please feel
free to email us about the price. We can also be found at Overstock.com auctions
if your still interested in bidding.


This will be our last communication regarding this issue. We
will
not
email
anything else unless you request us to at
sales@ssautochrome.com!

(note: if you received this email already, we appologize, as this was sent to ssautochrome
ebay customers as well.)

Thanks, SSA staff!

My thoughts excatly, no more ebay fees plus people can just add everything to a cart and do it at once. I would think that the easier buying (no moe auctions) system would encourage people to buy more stuff.

Damn those niggaz know their ----...except how to get someone to build a good manifold. I'm just waiting to see them on the cover of Fortune500 magazine.

Their wastegates do work and work great at that. Not sure about their manifolds or their turbos but I've had good experience with that 50mm wastegate. not a single sprike and worked great for months.

Re: ssautochrome...xspower
 
Yup, the man is a genius and even as shitty as his manifolds and turbos are, he still sells them by the truck load and idiots keep buying them even thought they are told over and over to stay away. Can't blame him for taking advantage of the idiots. :1 ---- Ebay anyways. I honestly don't see how sellers can make a profit with the fees egay charges. A seller has to pay a listing fee, then the item sells and they have to pay a % of the sale, then when the buyer pays they get raped on Paypal(ebay)fees. It's like the government with taxes, only worse. :3

There will always be idiots in the world so SSAC/XS-Turbo will always have customers.

Re: ssautochrome...xspower
 
What part fall in the can buy section?

We all know that the turbos and the manifold are crap
People seem to like the bovs, intercooling piping is hard a screw up if you have decent couplers
Are their intercooler ok?

BOV
Intercoolers
Wastegates
Piping is piping most of the time
LSD
CDM Cast Manifolds are usually fine
CDM Gauges

wastegates are kinda on the edge of junk but the rest of the list is ok. Ill approve the cdm cast manifolds and at 100-150 bucks cant go wrong



The rest you might has well burn your wallet if you buy the parts

Re: ssautochrome...xspower
 
Wow... makes me wanna go shopping almost. I must have never paid them attention on ebay. I didn't know they knocked off the GT28RS, and GT45. coooool, somebody buy one & see how they run lmao!
v6 lightweight pulley... I wish they'd make alot of them, Toyota's etc. They'd sell a ton of them.
LoL they're making domestic manifolds hahahaha
Apparantly I never realized how much ---- they push. I was looking at some chinese makers the other day. They had knocked off Toyota's older 2rz-fe & selling them for a couple hundred bucks. Crazy minimum order of 25. After other itneresting engines too. Turbo diesels, etc.

Been running an XSpower manifold for around 6 months now with NO problems. Also running an OBX LSD also with NO problems.

Re: ssautochrome...xspower
 
My old hatch has a SSAC manifold still holding up after a few years of daily driving. :l No braces on a T3 and a solid exhaust. :S It looks like a jar of smashed assholes, but it's still holding up. :l
