Here's a better one

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUPER...Q5fAccessories

I mean is this for real. I was talking to this guy and the reason they are dirt cheap is because they are building them. Im not into buying ebay junk, but something seems wrong here. I mean Im interested in the difference from $5K kits with brand names to these cheap <$900 ebay kits?

Can someone please install one of these an video tape so we can all see catastrophic failure in real time.. I'll chip in 10$ towards purchasing and shipping this kit to a repudable shoop to record the event and post here... A little MY350Z R&D!

My comment to you is...RUN!!!!!! ...Not only from this turbo kit, but also from this thread because you are likely to be flamed beyond belief. The flood gates are opening....

I actually bought 2 of the twin turbo kits, so I ended up with a custom quad-turbo set up with dual intercooolers @36 lbs of boost, these kits are well worth the $.
