Default Ebay Turbo Kits

Has anyone had any experience with one of these kits:

Seems like a pretty cheap way to get into boost. You can probably get bigger injectors, colder plugs and a dyno tune all for $1000 which would get you boosted for half the price of the hellion kit... Just wondering if anyone has tried one of these.

lol when i clicked this thread i was thinking about those stupid electric motor attachments you put on your intake. the little electric fans. came in here, saw what it actually is and thought "hell if this is legit and it all fits, id drop $1200 on a turbo kit."

you have me curious now as well.

note that instructions are not provided. so it suggests you really need to know what your doing or have help.

That's a helluva deal, but I'd be a little worried of one of their components failed or if you have any trouble installing it..

ya thats my major concern. but when you think about it. the hellion turbo kit is like $5500. you could buy 4.5 of these ebay kits before you reach that amount.

and you could probably adapt the hellion instructions to work for this. its likely very similar.

If don't see it being a problem for seasoned techs...
