Default XS Power Turbo's

OK everyone start flaming I know that they are not that good but a guy is tryuing to sell me one and he says that the housing has the Turbonetics emblem on it and it also has XS Power casted in it. He wants 400 for it and a 60-1 that needs to be re-built. I am just trying to decide if this is worth it or not. The XS Power is a T3/T4. ANy input is appreciated. Has anyone successfully used one of these turbo's? Thanks

James

no matter what, i wouldnt feel safe wasting 400 bucks on that turbo! i really would just wait and buy a new/rebuilt turbo thats legit. even if you have to pay a little more, its better to know for sure what quality parts you are buying. i wouldnt do it, thats just me though
