LEt me know what you guys think about this turbo. I have seen the exhaust housing for sale for $220 or this whole thing for $565. I was just gonna buy the Housing and put a Turbonetics T3.T4 in there and some custom oil feed line and drain. ANYBODY KNOW WHERE I CAN GET A WASTEGATE ADAPTER FROM FOR A T4 Compressor housing, cause the T3 usually dont fit. LET ME KNOW ABOUT THE TURBO AND IF ANYONE IS USING THE EXHAUST HOUSING

Let me handle this one boys... FIRST OF ALL, CAPS ARE NOT NEEDED TO GET A RESPONSE TO A QUESTION. Thank you. Now that is out of the way...

When I clicked on the link, it brought me to an ebay item with a picture and a title. The seller had a feedback rating of 56% and a total of a +1 rating, after nine transactions and four of the nine were negative feedback ratings; this is not a good sign. There was not any information on the turbo.

There is a reason that turbos sell for what they do. I think that you would be out of your mind to even consider buying that turbo based on the pure fact that it said, "T3/T4 E TURBO , MITSUBISHI DIRECT BOLT-ON , 550 HP." I don't even know what your talking about when you say, "exhaust housing." Are you referring to a turbine housing?

Save your money and do some reasearch.

hrmm i dont know much about that turbo besides they dont tell you much but turbo speed is the guy whos linked on the website hes also a dsmtuner member and ive seen quite a few bad posts about him like selling a T28 turbo when its really a t25 and stuff like that in any case if i was spendin 500 bucks i would neverrrrr everrrrrrrrr spend it on soemone with a rating of 1. anyhow from what ive seen t3/t4's are like a 1000+ because they need the manifold ect ect. i cant tell in this picture why this one would be any different anyhow just buy a 1g or a 20g and get over it :p

I'm with you on this one. I have a hard time bidding on big items when they have like 30. I need 100+ with alot of them from selling for me to be comfortable.
 
yah i hear ya, The feedback thing is not a good sign to me either. I was gonna buy it from there website or call the phone # to place an order and see what happens. I really do not like ebay that much because sometimes there are stupid problems that can cause bad feedback. I will see if i can get somemore info on this turbo from the vendor. What is his name on the fourms here, cause it does sound to good to be true. As for the turbine housing, AKA exhaust housing i have seen it forsale on e-bay for $220 and you can bolt any t3/t4 turbo you would like into it

Do a nice search of that guys shop name and you will get a good piece of info on them.

Bwahahaha....I guess he got tired of reading his replies and just answered all of his replies with.....
"Reply by hiperformancedepot: We are Really Sorry, Our company is now back online, Give us Another try!!! "....even his positive one.

then check out www.cheapturbo.com

it adds up

Those turbine housings on ebay are bullseye-power.com housings. I have one on my car. Works great no fitment issues with bigger compressor housings and the spool is great. I recommend them. LAter
 
Yes, I was speaking to david over there about the turbine housings and he is really good guy to deal with and seems like they have great customer service and really believe in there products. I just orderd one, now i need a turbo
Tom
 
Do like he said, but the turbine housing directo from bullseye-power.com

I have one on my car and it is a very nice peice.

Then buy a turbo with a stage III wheel and bolt it together.
 
well first off
t3/t4 hybrid requirse a garrett manifold iirc, its not a direct bolt on to a mitsubishi manifold.

the external wastegate? tial would solve that

him running off with your money? i dont see anything that'd make that a happy conclusion though :p
 
umm, it is direct bolt on to a mitsu manifold and 02 housing. Just buy a t3/t4 drain and feed kit from diamondmotorsports and its on there.

My advice: Quit trying to save a few dollars, and buy from a reputable DSM vendor. That way you are much less likely to get ripped off, plus you are helping out the DSM community. I went through AGP and they came through with everything exactly as advertised, replied to my emails and phone calls, and gave me awesome service. Most reputable DSM shops will do the same. Don't buy anything from a schmuck on ebay, especially if its 'too good to be true"
