...Relapsed
ok, i have always been known to talk schyt about ebay stuff...
for the past few months, i have been working out of a shop installing performance parts, turbo kits, swaps, etc. and i have always used kits like DRAG, GReddy, etc. and i never looked at ebay because i always thought it was crap. well about a week ago i ordered a kit off ebay for a customer that im going to install. his budget was low, so i searched ebay. since i knew exactly what is required for a proper install, i searched and searched. i found a kit that had everything with the exception of the intercooler and intercooler piping, which was $600 shipped. i figured it was too good to be true but the customers budget was hella small. so we bought the kit and some intercooler piping with an intercooler for about $250.
now...
i just got the kit and i installed it today. i have to say... wow. i really diddnt know that the shit they sent me was going to be nearly as good quality as i thought it would be. everything was good, and it came with everything needed. everyhting was new. it had a few things that i diddnt expect, like a 3" downpipe, missing link, extra flanges and stuff. all the TIG welds were done good. the guys turbo spools at about 2800 rpms which is a huge suprise for only running 8 PSI.
so anyways, i hereby take back all the shit that i talked about ebay stuff. you can find good deals there (if you know what you are looking for)
anybody else have any good or bad experiences they wanna share?
