Are these worth buying??

[G@NDY]

Just seen these on the american ebay, and seen as my turbo pack is stuffed wondered if its worth bidding on them, any advice would be appriciated. :yes

Anyone? :xconfused

Well its always risky buying used turbos, but they do look in good condition, and if there off a 98 as stated they would be worth having, only downside is the $220 shipping fee, then having to pay Mr Blair some import tax.

as the items are used you should avoid paying tax...? items i got from japan recently didnt have any tax to pay.

At worst you\'d just get import tax (10%) id say, cant charge VAT on a used item?

You are looking at the best part of £400.oo delivered thats if the auction doesn\'t get out of hand.

 You can get a decent pair here in the UK from someone for half that... even been sold for £150...
 If you don\'t like them or they are faulty, then the e-bay one there is no recourse as if it was one bought locally!

 Is that for the later spec turbo\'s??. It would be top bananna if i could find a decent set for that price over here, i may even smile :p

[ScuttleRX]

have seen pre-99 spec for that sort of price, think the post 99 still get a bit of a premium added to them

What does everyone think about this single kit

 Is that everything i would need? (apart from intercooler and fuel pump etc???)

Andy, when something is cheap or to good to be true then it always 9 out of 10 times is!

 That is the SSautochrome turbo set up from USA... cheap and poor.
 Drop in on the usa forums and have a look at the feedback from those kits..
The mainfolds crack easily, the Turbos are always mismatched and don\'t last.. (made in China)..  The wastegate is exactly what it is, \'a waste\'....
 Don\'t listen to me, go on those forums as those guys have not only got hurt by those cheap kits, but bought them to experiment and were proven to be kak...

 Actually I know of a member on here who has indeed went that route and his set up is also now dead after 1K miles.....

 Remember "Good things aint cheap and Cheap things aint good!"

[G@NDY]

Yeah thanks mate, i thought it looked to good to be true :flamed

Just seen these on the newera website, just says uprated knight sport turbos, i take it from the text that they are stronger, but do you think they would flow better than the standard ones, and even the later spec packs?
Dont know if they would be better than the uprated turbo technic ones that pip sells, but they are around 600 quid cheaper and pretty shiny :cool
