Default RE: SS auto chrome turbo

do not, DO NOT, buy a turbo from ss auto or xs power. If you want a turbo that wont blow up before the end of the driveway stick with garrett or a borg warner k0 whatever. If cost is an issue just get a t-series turbo. They are journal bearings instead of ball bearing sotheywill spool a little slower but whenmatchedwith a smaller turbine (.48) you candecrease spool up time. A t3t4 50trim which is a good all around turbo can be had for $575 at www.boostfactory.net. Buy quality parts and you wont have to worry about reliability.

SS Autochrome and XS Power have been known to be cheaper, less reliable products.
