What do you all think?

I know you get what you pay for and with price comes power, but im interested n turboing my b16 (99 Si) and im tight with money.

Ebay Turbo


1.) Is this worth the price?
2.) Will it damage my engine?
3.) Will it fit?

Thank you in advance for you help

dude, i wouldn't go with them..i've heard nothing but bad about ssautochrome (search and ye shall find) plus you're only bidding on a turbo mani and d/p...tite on funds is one thing, but 200 bux for the parts that hold your turbo to the motor...there are better places to skimp on quality man...i say nay on this "deal"...

just my .02

*edit* i like the look of your car, but you'll prolly get flamed for the duals...

If you don't have money, you don't need a turbo, plain and simple. Its not something to skimp. You'll be sorry now, you'll be even more sorry later when you're picking pieces up off the highway.

Yea thanks for the help i really appreciate it. I dont like the duals myself but hats what they came with wheh i got the car. Im repainting the car next summer so im gonna get the left one cut out and fiberglass over the left outlet.

I guess ill save up if thats what you guys think is the smatest move. Once again thanks for the thoughts.
