Anyone seen this turbo system on Ebay?

Hey,

I saw this on ebay, and was wondering if anyone has seen it before? It seems really cheap, which usually means its too good to be true!!

I've never heard of this kit before, but that doesn't say much, since I know very little about turbos! I just wanted to see if anyone had any luck with it?!

http://www.on3performance.com/mustangcobra.html ---check this kit out


Alot of people are using the 2v kit on svtperformance. Lots of info about the kit if you search around.


The 4v kit is supposed to be avaliable in September btw.

Here are a few pics they sent me a few months ago when they were still fabbing the kit up:

Not trying to be skeptical, but this sounds to good to be true to me! With a price like that I wonder what all else you would need to purchase to make it work......something just makes me go hmmmmmmmmmmmm!

It list all the things needed to complete the kit.....the one major one I noticed was a K member...

Someone get one ! So we can find out if its too good to be true ! K- member $600.00 .

[machdaddy777]

This is really tempting! Especially the price and horsepower gains compared to a supercharger! Especially the driveability too! Is it hard to find used K members? I might have to try this in the near future!

x2 on wondering if this is a good kit.

its a turbo kit that was built in china by an 8 year old boy.

take it for what its worth, some of the china **** works ok. for 1700 i wouldnt chance it. the manifolds/piping are 18-20ga which is way too thin for the weight/heat seen on a turbo setup. they will eventually crack, not a matter of if but when. with some bracing the stuff may last a while.

[machdaddy777]

How much does a kit like this normally cost? Ive never really looked at turbos, mostly superchargers!

Already goton my car with the F1A Blower, I will pass on being the guneau pig, lol! That could possibly lead my *** into divorce court, and ya know what they say after ya been married 10 years? What yours is hers and she gets half of everything my *** owns..............................hmmmmmmmmmm!

[machdaddy777]

Already on your car or already ordered one?

i would NOT buy this kit. the owners name is Chad Roberts and i know him, his quality of parts, and his lack of customer service!!
he wanted to partner up with some of my guys at my shop to do some R&D for him. they got the kit, installed it, had some big problems with fitment and parts quality and Chad got ill from the phone calls and problems and basically told them they got what they paid for....WTF????? they were doing R&D for him!!
long story short, they wound up having to buy other vendors parts to properly complete the kit and made lots of mods to the existing parts to get them to work right. up close inspection showed nothing more than typical crappy quality ebay junk!! the kits are made up of a bunch of ebay bought parts, manufactured overseas and put together to make one ebay kit!!
1. v-band clamps were cheap and fell apart...some already broke in box
2. couplers where of cheap BBK like quality...you know the blue ones for the cold air kits...LOLOL
3. waste gate and blow off are nothing more than knockoffs of name brand parts
4. pipe flange did not line up with turbo flange and holes needed to be elongated
5. bolts supplied in kit where too big diameter to fit in the holes the instructions said to use them on
6. pass side header needed hella modding to bolt up and fit properly

and this was all on a fox body stang too....imagine how bad the fitment would be on a mod motor car with very limited space underhood...LOLOL


just a heads up friends. take it for what its worth....
