Dude you can get an MHI 16g for that price. That turbo will not last long. Ask jusmx141 how many of these ebay turbos he build in a year....

It isnt a direct bolt on. I was trying to stay consistent with the original post :p
 
No OBX turbo or hardly any other product for that matter will ever be worthy of installing on any car. Only thing they have that's decent is the T3 exhaust manifold with a 44mm wastegate provision.
 
Did you guys read "balanced and assembled in the usa?" Also notice how the bottom pics are different from the top pics? I wouldn't personally buy it for that high of a price! However if it were lower I'd give it a thought just to be the guinea pig!!!

yeah I get what you are saying about bolt on but still dont justify spending that much on a turbo from obx when you can buy a blown 16g have justin rebuild it and buy the jpipe to make it work and still probably spend less than that. That is my point I guess.

It would have to be a lot lower. As-is the turbo is roughly the same cost as a MHI Evo III, a turbo with more airflow potential and MUCH better durability.
