Re: SSS Autochrome
That picture you show below is probably 3 years old - and it is "NOT " a XS-POWER turbo
that they show breaking in half on the websites. It is not the same - it is not from China. That turbo is not a 2 piece / nor have we ever sold a 2 piece casted turbo.
The Turbo we had first was made in CLACKMANNAN Scotland - the owner had a joint venture with Izuzu and Citroen and Lotus and had these Turbos made. Then - someone ( we think it was TURBOCALCULATOR ) sent this to CHINA.
This is where it all began, and all fell apart. Turbocalculator was selling items stating they were ours , and also selling ours saying they were others. China started drop shipping them and telling everyone they had them. People thought and still do think they are ours.
From SSauto himself, I asked him a ---- ton of questions all about the manifolds etc etc. I'll post up maybe more later when I'm done reviewing all his stuff.
And yes, we are still going to be making a B-series AC/Comp manifold for him, and 5 users from hmt will get to try them out.
