Default Re: Ebay Turbo VS LS VTEC

Hello Dominic, okay so these ebay turbo kits argh so many mixed opinions on them, I have heard good things and HORRIBLE things, now the parts are cheap that you get with the ebay kit, cheap parts = bad reliability , now with a turbo you will see lots of power but loose that reliability, now ls vtec is not cheap but you have the reliability if built properly. You don't get as much power but you get a consistant power band oppose to a turbo. This is what I would do you want a turbo, look for someone selling a used kit thats a brand name and you may get same price or add a few hundred dollars but you will have that in the back of your mind saying it's something decent oppse to an ebay turbo.

I know people run the ebay turbos and have no problems but it's something that can't win my trust. i dunno if this helps or just makes you more confused post up any other questions you may have happy to answer
