Rev9 eBay turbo kits
Hey guys
Before I ask about this kit I just want you to know that: yes I’m aware that using an eBay turbo kit isn’t a great idea and that some parts might not really fit all that well. But the kit is 2500 cad vs a JDL kit that costs more than double if I wanted a turbo with the kit. I’m willing to do some extra work and replace provided lines, fittings and clamps. Now I’ve got that out of the way, has anyone had any experience with this kit? https://www.ebay.ca/itm/161784630111...mis&media=COPY It looks like a copy of another kit but I can’t figure out which one. I got in touch with the seller and asked a couple of questions regarding this kit and this is what I found. The kit comes with a 90 warranty if it’s installed by a professional, the kit comes from Cali but I’m not sure whether that’s true or false and it does not come with an instruction manual. But I’m guessing it’s a copy of some kit so I don’t think it would be hard to find a guide on how to install it. If anyone has any experience with this kit, I’d love to hear your thoughts on it.

The most expensive turbo kit is a cheap turbo, you just pay more for it over time instead of all at once.
