ssautochrome turbo kits

Take a look and tell me what you all think. I have never heard of these guys but a buddy turned me onto them. The kit for the D series is pretty cheap. http://www.ssautochrome.com/level.itml/icOid/1629

type in ssautochrome at the top of the page and you'll see for yourself that they are s**t, very cheaply made kits

 

[io_303]

they are a good design of manifold, its just their welds are crap, if you can reinforce their welds and brace the manifold then they work just fine

My buddy has one, and its been fine for some time now... its not a bad kit. The turbo itself had a broken seal, but was easily fixed... Come to think of it, I know someone else with one (they're stamped xspower), and its held good as well.
Keep in mind, that is not the entire kit you know. Your gonna need a lot more parts to make it work. Thats just for starters.

Really I am just looking for a down pipe to mate with my Turbo from a Probe GT.

looks like its alright.. maybe be if they had a feedback page things would be better... for the price you can't go wrong

 

[fightinchunk]

you'd probably be much better off junkyard diving

Deffinately dont get it.

 

[Svr_Civic]

even the cars that race at moresville drag strip down here..where the kits are made like not even 10 minutes away... dont use the kit... their crap and the headers crack 90% of the time

some people have problems, some don't

Personally the only part I see that would give a problem would be the manifold.

^ I've heard the turbos blow seals easily too.

What about this kit, it doesn't include a manifodl from the looks of it, but that can easyly be fixed.

Thats true, but you can always rebuild it before you install it, and it'll be fine.
