It is a rip off of the evo 3 rip off. If you want an evo 3 16 then get the MHi unit from any reputable vendor. (turbochargers.com has the best price, see add^) Also the search function is your friend. Just type in SSauto chrome and you will find several threads about the quality of their products. I personally have never used anything they make. But I have owned the mhi e3 for over a year and it was the second best investment I have made since I have owned a DSM.

No its not the real deal.

How can you tell??? Although I at least cant tell if thats a real evoIII, I would buy one from a credible site, like www.dsmparts.com, I believe that they, or www.turbochargers.com has the best prices, but dont waste your money on that, especially if you dont know if its the real deal, if its at all questionable, just dont buy it, thats always a good way to think when buying parts.

The compressor hosing does not have TDO5H stamped on it.

Correct. Some even say EVO GT on them which is the knock off version.

The TC.com rip off is the one that says evo gt on it. SS was too cheap to even do that, their's is just smooth which is why I said it was a rip off of a rip off.
 
Stay far away from this company , i bought a new turbo from them that lasted about 2 weeks, biggest junk on the market, and they have no phone number to contact them,
Have emailed them for over 2 weeks and nothing.

They ripped off the name of that turbo from turbochargers.com

Well I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I must of have lucked out because SS Auto Chrome sent me a TDO5H Evo III 16G Ported. I ended up with the real deal and it is running strong and no problems.
 
How long have you had the turbo?, And i hope you have very good luck with it, just got mine back from being checked, the turbo was never balanced, which you know what that does 2 them.
