I'm sure I'm not the only one who has seen these turbo kits in the last week or so on ebay. I believe they're all being sold by a "rid****one".

Example:http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...%3AIT

Anyone have an opinion of these, or at least some familiarity?

actually it looks like he took those pictures from IAP website. Look there and you'll see a shocking resemblance. Most likely a scam.

I definetely would not buy a turbo kit, for now it is at $466 but it definetely will go up, from someone with 5 feedbacks, 77% rating and who only accepts cashiers check, money order or similar, ways that don't give any possibility of a claim.

Yeah I was looking at one of those last night and right away I noticed the picture of the oil lines to the turbo. I knew right away that they were IAP's. I smell scam but people are still bidding.:(

there's a bunch of these on ebay, and i'm curious about them too. i emailed one of them to ask if they offer tech support or instructions and they never responded. and some of them flat out say they don't offer tech support. i really wish they were legit, cuz they have some good prices on turbo kits with FMIC 's . oh well, i hate scammers . they are the scum of the earth.
