1G Opinions on CX Racing Turbos?

[3dd13]

I'm in the middle of a Headswap on my '91 Mighty Max and looking for turbo recommendations. Is anyone familiar with turbos from CX Racing? If so, what are your thoughts.

Thanks.

They’re the same Chinese knockoff 16g as every other Chinese knockoff on eBay and Amazon.

Ok, thanks for the info. The website says assembled and tested in the US, buy I was unsure where the parts were sourced.

They will tell you anything to make a quick buck stay away.

Hey, it could be true
Just doesn't mean their "employees" give a shit.

I ran a “boostedboiz” ball bearing turbo on my civic it was relatively cheap and made many pulls and passes on it with out issues and new owner still has it on the car. You get what you pay for sometimes you get lucky and they last but don’t be surprised if they don’t.

That could simply mean they bolted the oil feed line to it or something else and look at it, very ambiguous statement.

Double that. I worked for a major manufacturing concern in export. We could label our country of origin US by simply modifying Chinese bolts with a paint pen. None of this stuff is strictly enforced. A USMAC (NAFTA) audit is a joke most of us used as a reason to work from home for a week.

Thanks to everyone that has provided feedback on this.

Since CX Racing is out of the picture now, does anyone have any info about an eBay seller of rebuilt turbos by the name of turbos-king from Poland? He has good eBay feedback, but I value the input from folks here.

Thanks again!

I sent him a message through another thread, but I haven't received a response. It doesn't look like he has been online for several months.
