What do you guys think about the XS ENGINEERING turbo kit for the integra gsr? It's got a ball bearing turbo. Does anyone know if it's any good?

im gonna guess youre talking about the one on ebay. its missing a few parts: any fuel management, bov, i guess silicon couplers, probably more. stay away from anything non-name brand on ebay. esp when it comes to turbo kits. its not really something you want to fuck around with, you can blow your engine and you can waste a lot more money than your pos ebay kit.

XS Engineering is a name brand company, but buying it off ebay means you are purchusing it from a non-name brand place, a place of complete unknowns.
Buying on ebay is a risk. Most companies don't conisder anything off ebay a store, and there is no-reciept if to boot if it's a warrentied product and warrenty work is needed. Moreover, if something is broken or missing, you are SOL. Ebay is always a crap shoot, I would never buy any product from a place like that. Seats, lighting, performance of otherwise. However, I would never do it with something like a turbo kit. If you want to buy a pre-made turbo kit, buy one from a reputable distributor of the manufacturers products and not from a place like ebay.

XS-Engineering and XS-Power are NOT the same company. XS Engineering makes good stuff. XS Power is basically SSautochrome and produces pure steaming shit. Don't buy it.
