T3/T4 to4e TURBO - ANY GOOD?

Postby CXGPWR » Sun Jan 17, 2010 6:03 pm

Right so i got me a brand new T3/T4 to4e Turbo, no wastegate, just wondering if anyone has had any know issues with them?
This one has been balanced so all shall be well in that department,
Was going to put on a sr20det or a 3sge + t dual vvt?
Which would be better? both 2l
or is this turbo not suited

Its chinese! lol

There are numerous threads regarding cheap chinese knock offs on this forum, The parts used are no where near the quality of a Garrett.

Read this thread for starters and make youre own mind up.

They are cheap for a reason.

That xspower turbo BS is so long ago, I'm sure the new knock offs are better quality, by a very long mile.

That said, I wouldn't use a knock off myself :P

When you buy a Chinese turbo, you play Russian Roulette.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.
