CXRacing makes it

I have no idea who they are but EVERY tuning company starts like this so it might be a chance worth takeing.

The only advise I would give is stay away from the "38mm Wastegate" they offer. Buy a Tial wastgate that uses the same spec as the one in the kit. Also buy yourself a blow off valve. Have some one weld it to the piece of intercooler piping that is attached to your intake manifold. Like this:

Also I would rebuild that turbo and replace the guts with dual ball bearing centers.

It's a generic ebay setup, no special company really since they all get it from the same 1 or 2 guys & piece it together.

You can search or just browse the KA24ET/DET subforum, it's been covered quite a bit, and I believe a few members have actually run it (results varied & total costs are usually a bit higher than what u see in the end).

Check out the KA-T forum, the first stickied post in there. Ebay turbo kits is the name.

In short.. You get what you pay for. Generally it is going to be cheaper in the long run to make your own kit from parts that are known to work. Topmount ebay manifolds suck badly, as do ebay turbos. Luck of the draw, most people come up short.

SO STFU unless you have something to say on the subject.

haha its always the same story. only those who have not tried the products are the ones who have bad things to say about them. its always "i heard...." sometimes its good to try something. people who dog on ebay coils have never used them. i have and they are pretty decent, you just need a set of good dampers to along with them (high spring rates)
