0 feedback + other turbo scams = SCAM

I wouldn't buy a turbo off ebay for a $1. Probably get sent a box of rocks.

I read the ebay post before scrolling down this thread .. My thoughts were the same as many of you here . First off, he didnt punctuate at all . Secondly who takes pictures of a brand new kit if its used ? Thirdly, that looks like a turbonetics kit.. Correct me if im wrong look at the last G35 pic on the lower right...

The pictures used are from tig488 (Brett's G35)

Which by the way was the first APS SINGLE turbo system on a G35 in the states.


It's definitely a scam.
