Re: What turbo is better?

Ok, well I'm going to say you get more with the ebay kit. That doesn't mean it's the better deal. I'm going to say that it is actually the worst of the two. I wouldn't buy a "turbo" off of ebay. Especially from XS Power (not that this is from them, but looks like they might have made it). The non-name brand turbos from ebay are sorry and won't last. Some of them have been glued together. I would say that you can pick up a decent FMIC kit off of ebay though, as the intercoolers are good/and cheap(as far as pricewise) and a pipe is a pipe.

I would definitely say the SBR-G50 is the better buy. It is name brand and has a good reputation.

So, SBR FTW...
