Good ol ebay stuff!

I agree with GT. it is not a scam but a universal kit that fits a number of different cars.

Hold up, you are actually serious about this? I thought it was a joke

Ebay is FAIL. Don't buy this. The turbo is a Chinese knock off. It will BLOW UP in under 500 miles if your lucky. It will LEAK oil. It will produce inconsistent results. And it will NOT make 450-whp or anything close to that.

The intercooler charge piping is generic. It will need to be cut up and re-welded to fit your car. Not to mention it's probably the wrong diameter piping you need.

The kit also doesn't include a wastegate, which is a BIG deal.

As far as I'm concerned selling items like this is a scam. I absolutely believe in "buyer beware", but I also have a problem with people taking advantage of people who don't know any better. I'd hate to see some 17 year old waste their money on this (or worse, screw up their car with it).

I'm actually going to disagree slightly and say that I bet the picture is exactly what you get for $399. I don't think it's a scammer, in the sense that it's a bait and switch or a chance to rip you off. I just think it's a cheaply made kit.

There's no way a 50 A/R compressor and .63 A/R turbine housing will allow you to push 450 HP on a MS6, or even that "on a stock motor the kit will create give the motor a 50-100 horsepower gain on a low boost setting of 8 PSI."

It's overly optimistic advertising of a low quality product, but I don't think its an out-and-out scam. It's branded "Street Demon", and I've never heard of them. It looks like a generic turbo kit that they re-list for all sorts of different cars.

Exactly what I was thinking. You'd probably get exactly what was in the pics, but it wouldn't take long for you to not want it anymore lol.

Yeah, not having a wastegate is a problem. I know some people don't run them...but those guys are pretty much trying to blow their engines so they can get a new one, or they just don't care.

This, however, I think would be HILARIOUS. Actually, I would feel bad for the kid a bit, but there is no better way to teach that lesson lol. Experience teaches common sense like no ones business lol.
