Ebay 16g Install kit

[TSITurbo95]

I know what everyone says about ebay parts, but I bought a couple, and am yet to have any issues with them, grant it they are not moving parts, but none the less. So I think it's ridiculous to buy a 16g install kit when it cost's $175-$200 bucks. So my question is, how bad can the 16g install kit's really be? I mean hose is hose, and metal is metal.

2g DSM Install Kit 16g 14b FMIC SS Line Jpipe J Pipe : eBay Motors (item 190376920761 end time Mar-30-10 20:33:15 PDT)

Any opinions on this, or any feedback from anyone using it?

I dont see why it wouldnt work, ive heard good things about cxracing.

I have some things with them as well that I am happy with and heard good reviews about most of their stuff as well. The only thing I would need is a oil feed and return correct?

The main thing you need is the j-pipe off the intake side. You could modify your existing lines, but if you want to make it easy on yourself get the kit and everything will directly bolt on. I think it also come with coolant lines.

Isn't that kit missing some things? Like water lines, oil lines, etc.....?

 

[TSITurbo95]

The line there is the water line, isnt it? And I know about the oil lines missing. I have the gaskets already for everything. Just need the water and oil feed & return lines. I am just looking for a cheaper alternative, I think they kits everyone else sells is ridic overpriced.

i ordered one off ebay and never had a problem with mine why pay twice as much for a true big16 when you can get a knock off. i was pushing 20psi off mine.

You can get the feed line off road race engineering. Your stock drain tube will work you just need to file the bolt holes a lttle to get the to match up and you can use the water lines off your t25 they just need a little bending to make work

The one in the ebay link posted should work. Now would I tap the oil feed where my t25 oil feed is currently? I would not need a restrictor would I?

 

[Ineedboostman]

yeah just tap into where the t25 line was. you dont need a restictor. you should be good with everything in the kit and then you just cut up the stock rubber hose to make the connections

A friend of mine bought that kit. The oil feed line that came with it took a dump, causing him to blow his 16g. I believe the pipes were fine.
