u guys musta forgot that thread where the guy built his own turbo kit and made over 400 hp with a PF tune with a 100$ chinese turbo with like 1000$ in parts
If you have the time, welding skills, and some tools, its not rocket science to pipe the exhaust to a turbo.
get real. GTM does that exact same process, granted with much more expensive parts.

i useed a few ebay fmic's in the past as like a place holder untill i had $ for a better one and never had a problem with them. air temp and boost pressure were almost unchanged when i switched to a pte cored ic. as far as the piping they do offer bead rolled ends or you can have that done for 5$ a pipe.. as long as you get the pipes thick enough dont see a problem. the T-bolt clamps suck. i have friends with dsm and such making arround 500awhp on ebay fmics and pipe kits. not saying this turbo or turbo kit is any good at all but some times $ is spent better elsewhere.

I actually would love for a company just to sell turbo manifolds, Preferably the Sound performance manifold or Speed force manifolds that mount the turbos far back and low.
Just because people are emailing you asking for just manifolds doesn't mean they are going to go on ebay and buy one of there "turbo kits" I hope not at least. I would want just manifolds because plumbing intercooler piping is extremely easy. and sorry but the Ebay intercoolers work preety well actually better then some name brand intercoolers.

I have received a couple emails regarding people asking if we sell just the turbo manifolds as they purchased a turbo kit that does not include them. I am posting this here because I feel people should know that the Universal Turbo Kit does not work with the 350z, G35c, or any other vehicle that does not come turbocharged from the dealer or most that do for that matter.
Problems with the turbo kit from the following link:
1. Guarantee turbo is not of good quality
2. Same goes for the Wastegate and BOV
3. Intercooler pipes are not bead rolled
4. Misc. Piping (4) 45s, (2) 90s, (2) straight pieces (cut and weld to fit)
5. No engine management or fuel delivery
6. The list can go on.

We certainly sell any part of our turbo kit seperately!!!

The last two emails I have received cited this ebay kit specifically so I decided it was necessary to make this thread. I understand some people would like to make their own kit, but when I receive emails or phone calls saying they want to save money and they "think" they can make their own except for the manifolds, etc, etc., I don't think they know what they are getting into.
