I found this last week and was looking at it. Seller says its brand new, and there is no reserve. Its at 1200 right now, which is a helllof a lot cheaper than you would get anywhere else. 6 hours left on this bad boy. Would be a steal, no one bids on ka turbo kits lol.

Oops, heres the link..http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...8.lVI

I really wouldn't trust something this important to eBay. I bought a turbo off eBay thinking I was getting a good deal. THE DAY I put the turbo on it went out. A good friend of mine took it apart and deduced that the turbo came apart because of poor design and a cheaply made ball-bearing housing. So please do yourself a favor and spend a little money and get a proper turbo kit.

LOL! NOT. Just because it says its GREDDY doesn't mean it actually is. The turbo I bought said it was a Turbonetic turbo, the picture was of a Turbonetic's turbo, but when I got it, guess what it wasn't. That and the fact that there are so many knock offs of products (i.e. Fokley and Folex) its not funny.

If someone sells you a kit thats advertised as said name brand, then you get it and its not, you file a paypal dispute and get your cash and generally get to keep the item as well. Really its a win win situation, i love it when people try to scam me on ebay, paypal is your best friend.

Just because you got scammed doesnt mean ebay is a bad place to buy stuff. I have gotten some killer deals on top notch stuff off of ebay. You just have to be intelligent about your purchases.

If the item was falsely advertised, you could have gotten your money back by filing a dispute.

Just because something is from Ebay doesn't automatically mean it's junk. You just have to wade through all the junk to find the good stuff. I bought a perfect condition GtiR T28 for $260 shipped. I have seen them sell for much more than that.

This is why you have to pay very close attention to feedback when buying stuff off of ebay. I try not to deal with anybody that doesn't have at least 99% feedback, and at lease 100+ transactions under their belt.

Point is, don't dismiss something just because you see "ebay" somewhere in the title.
