Wait, what did Andy tell you to get? A pair of T3s or a T3 off of ebay?

Here is whatAndy said.....quote "...I seen people had some good results and some had bad.
And the internet spreads like a plague once someone said they had a bad expierence with that turbo then everybody will hop on the bandwaggon and call it junk. Honestly you just sometimes gota try it out for yourself. I don't think its bad as what someone say it is."[/align][/align]However, the friend of mine has a new turbo which he got for his Mazda and never used it. He said he'll give me the turbo for free. He's in Detroit now so I'll just wait for him....that one might be better! Since he is spoiled as spoiled can get I hope it's one of these brand names!

Make sure you are using the right size compressor for your car. A single T3 won't do crap for you, you'll need something larger or a pair of them.

You can find some good turbos off of ebay some guys just like to play for name brand. I have friends that bought some off of ebay and took it to a machine shop here to have them clean it and inspect it works fine to this day

No it's ok man....I appreciate you being honest, thats why I asked. But I just don't think everything isas bad as you are saying. Do you think all those people out there use garret, precision or turbonetics turbos....offcourse not. I'm not saying they don't want them but they are very expensive, even used ones. If I could find any for the price I paid for this one I would've gotten it. However, I hope nothing break with this one for at least a year!
Anybody who is serious about making horsepower knows.

Reliable horsepower doesn't come cheap
cheap horsepower isn't reliable

really? so nitrous and methanol injection isn't reliable? i ran my meth for awhile and never had a problem. only reason i got rid of it was because it wasn't doing squat when i got to 17psi, let alone the 20psi i'm at now. for your basic 8-12psi, it rocks!
