Not to mention that most of them are 5 bolt exhaust so they don't even fit.

I think these people need to learn from experience...


eBay turbos are the best turbochargers money can buy! Go ahead and buy one, see how it works out on your car, and let us know.

I put eBay K03 turbochargers in my Bugatti Veyron, and they work wonderfully! I'm now pushing 1832AWHP... but I don't have dyno charts to prove it sorry they're not on this computer (HINT HINT: WHO DO I SOUND LIKE?)

Ebay is evil not just in the aspect of our Audis but in general. wow Vegas has less addiction and more satisfied customers.

Ok, last bit in this worthless thread.

Ebay turbos = cheap chinese parts and come unbalanced.
Unbalanced turbos = last about a week before they blow up at speeds, that is if the cheap *** seals dont blow first.
