I used a turbo and a manifold from them in my old setup and they both worked fine for me but it was a T25 so there wasn't alot of load on the manifold.I really hope he starts producing some better designs as the pricing is awesome and instead of piecing together used crusty parts alot of us could run new ----.Anybody use one of there intercoolers?Ive never heard anything about how they perform.

1- T3/T4 "T70 Turbo"
2- T3/T4 57trim .50/63 (internal gated)
3- T3/T4 57trim .50/63
4- Tial look alike 50mm BOV
5- 2 TurboXS's cloned RFL's
6- 45mm Cloned HKS Gate / 40mm HKS Cloned Gate
7- Tial look alike 35mm Gate
no ----; it'd be really nice if his t70 thing turned out to be decent. my garret t3/t04e is taking a ---- and i'll need a new turbo pretty quick

well 1 night of street racing the setup has done pretty well... about 8 races 17~19ish psi (turned it up and isnt holding to well)

Blow off valve is working good, I'm gonna put on his 45mm gate tommorow and see how well it holds boost, this audi gate is about as bad as a delta creeper.

ALL the turbo form XS are built in China, not singal one of them are built here in the US. (Yes I know exactly no matter what they said)
Most of the manifold flanges are wraped, head flange AND turbo flange. They are resurfaced BEFORE they are welded together.
Some of the bolt pattern are misaligned. head flange and turbo flange.
Their D16 manifold does Not clear anything bigger T3/04B even tho they said it works with all T3/4
Almost all the the welding does not really penatrede (spell :P) deep enough

And racintweek I take it you don't care for there products? Abaz let me know how they do?

going based on everyone's experiences they have a very awful rep. now that there seems to be some real research beeing done by a knowlegable person on their NEW products, they seem to be going in the right direction. Jeff's tests could chenge thier rep if everythign turns out ok
