It would help if you told us what kinda turbo it is where you saw these numbers pictures something but that info alone isn't enough to tell you anything really except it's big and probably not to street friendly.

That is a big street turbo... Without using numbers common sense can lead you to assume that it will be a bit slower on the spool up...

Holy bajesus...yeah I think that might get outflowed by a E3B16G...

Just remember man, you get what you pay for, and OBX doesn't have the best name in the business. Save up and buy a nice 50 trim or something.

I got a 57trim right now and I want to go full T4 so I wanted to see how will it spool up.
I used obx stuff for a long time and never had any problems with them and Plus I heard that these turbos do a good job.

It says it has a lifetime warranty from defects, i woulkd buy it.

OBX now makes turbos?
Lord, what's this world coming to?!?

How about the 60 trim for $169 (related items at the bottom)????

I don't know why, but I think I just got a throw up taste in my mouth.

HA i can't believe this, i wold kind of figure people wold stay away from the big 3 obx, ssautochrome, xspower, when they see what happens to them. But yes, i agree with batman save up for a good turbo and you won't be sorry.

 

[JayRolla]

WOW I didnt know OBX made turbos, I never have liked anything of theres, maybe just the intercoolers. I would only buy a proven turbo that people have used. My next turbo will me a bullseye gt30r or some other varient of mitsu housing.

 

[Slippi84]

I would buy it and test it out shit people get to caught up on names. My SBR turbo is spitting oil after only 3 miles and that's not even WOT driving so don't be so sure that good company equals long lasting turbo and bad company(or bad rep) means bad turbo

You are right about that. I wont say any names but I bought a turbo from a very well know turbo company that all us dsmers use and the turbo went bad after couple hundred miles the good thing is they admit it that the turbo was bad and got me a new one but the point is like you said don’t just say the turbo is bad just from the companies name...

 

[DSM-97]

Names mean nutin, test it out, i have a well known company turbo and i had bought a ebay turbo wtf ever it was, i blew it in like 50 miles, there warranty means nutin, they will blow u off never here anything and u will never be able to get another turbo, beleive me i tried, there warranty is nutin........

 

[gsxeclipse97]

yeah i would never by a turbo from the ebay companies thtat just asking for trouble thats why they are so cheap.
