I will let you in on a secret right off the bat!! DO NOT USE THOSE T3/T4 Generic TURBOS FOR $179 ON EBAY THAT COME WITH THE KIT!!! They are glued together where the hot side meets the cold side!!! guys on probe talk are having cracking issues since it gets sooo hot and makes the glue loosen in result making the turbo fall apart!

The first batches of those turbos that came out did do that. But the recent ones aren't causing any problems. I've put them on a few cars for people, some of which run them hard all the time, and they haven't failed or shown signs of it.colinsmx3 wrote:I will let you in on a secret right off the bat!!

Probably the same situation like the first generation of Cosmo regulators that were always failing. It gave them a bad rep, but all the ones after that first batch lasted for years and years with no problems.
