Thats the site I believe the seller name is civicjoe or something he is a member here and a member on turbod16..... i am just wondering what you guys think of this kit and why a good price would be to pay for it... where do you find gaskets and orings? you guys were right about the last turbo so just wondering what you guys think of this

for christs sake build ur own kit because i know YOU out of all the poeple here can

go to the junkyards and find the parts u need
if u dont know what to look for ill tell u

 

[edhgreatone]

i hate the junkyards around here...... that all trashy people and are so unhelpful

what happened to the other turbo kit you were going buy and taking the risk on? well, this is another risk, no feedback on the seller and you don't know what the reserve is at so we can't tell you if it's a good price or not. most likely, it's at 1000+. if i were in your position, i wouldn't even think about buying a used turbo kit. i would just buy brand new and buy it at city-speed.com; their prices are very low as is. if you can't hang with their prices, save your money up untill then.

people are only unhelpful when u dont know what ur talking about

get a list of parts u want to find and ask the guy if he has any
or u can always try ebay or the homemadeturbo.com for sale section. they have lots of s**t there.

yeah true he posted something here in the classifieds... my other turbo i was going to buy i thought it over and decided not to... this guy has sent me over 7 emails with pictures and detailed descriptions of everything IMO its a lot less of a risk

meh the kit doesnt seem to bad but i wouldnt want his oil pan, plus he didnt go into much detail and the pics suck

at least you get injectors though small,will be good for a d series
i hate the e manage but i guess it works
no fmic thats more cash, i wouldnt run turbo without one thats just me


its ok but a weak kit, if you just want a little boost then yea but you wont be happy

 

[Ravage70]

i said it before and ill saY it again

BUILD UR OWN f**kEN KIT

i'm def. going with a greddy kit i don't care what you guys think of the greddy kit i am trying to get a safely boosted 14 second street car not some yunkyard kit with pieces i can't find and do not know how to put together... I want opinions on the kit not opinions on a different turbo set up

 

[evan2]

why not listen to people who have boosted cars before
a full greddy kit isnt abad idea if you never boosted before or dont know much
the power output is lackluster but if you just want 14 sec then yea go for it

im not a fan but thats ok

pieceing a kit together doesnt mean junkyard parts....
it just means you buy what you want and piece it together..

 

[edhgreatone]

i just don't want to hear any ideas or what not..... i have my mind set on the greddy kit and I am going to get it i just need to know what you guys think about the condition and shape it is in also what orings are and the gasket
