hmm im past due for a turbo kit, i did some research and pieced together a kit for about 2500, including the intercooler, t3/t4 turbo, revhard manifold, fuel pump, injectors, safc, and blow off valve. that doesnt include exhaust or oil lines or a turbo timer, etc. but let me know what happens with this. when are you planning on purchasing it?

chinese turbos have been known to fail but also have been known to last so who really knows, i'd give it a shot tho

[s14tan]

I plan on getting in sometime February when I can get all the parts that I need for it. Add its Chinese new years too you know what that means Red envelopes with money!!!

But until then Ima do more research and see if theres a better deal out there.

Ghettoslide LMK if you get in contact with the seller.

Soo has anyone gotten that specific kit yet?I emailed him and got a resopnse...If no one else gets it i just might get it, although... i only got $1200 and my new 240 is an auto (booooooo), so if i could afford both a transmission swap and a turbo i will... then again coilovers would be nice... how can so much money seem like jack ****. Being 17 sucks....

A garret rebuild kit is under $100...so if the seals crap out just rebuild it. Then you'll have all new seals, new bushings etc all for a great price.

Turbo's are easy to rebuild even for a noob.

Seller got back with me but gave no advice on fitment or quality. He did say though that we could get discount prices ( wholesale ) if we start an account at this site http://www.advancedjdmparts.com/ I'm guessing there is some affiliation.

Do you have to re-balance the assembly or some shiz like that?

If you plan not too, just mark when dissasembling, and reasemble by the marks. I mean, there's turbo rebuilds out there. Search and i bet you'll find the info.

Here's 10 seconds of searchin:you should scribe a line on the compressor wheel and shaft before removing it, and bolt it back on with the lines lined up to get it as close to balanced as possible.

Thanks, I just kept hearing that and wondered if I had to take it to some shop with a turbo balance machine.lol

[s14tan]

Got a message from the seller.I think he has no clue what hes talking about.

I asked him about the turbo elbows and haven't got a response yet.

I might want to just piece together my own kit.

[azienbabyboi]

yeah it kinda makes you worry because he has no idea, but then again hes working for some company that sells parts.

also im thinking of doing the samething aswell, but cant wait to see what you do and what numbers you get
