Default eBay kit? Post up!!!

I know we have threads about these kits, but no one has posted any numbers, drag times, etc...

Has anyone had one last over a year?

I'm talking about the cheapo ones... for around 1k you get the entire kit...

I'm just thinking about throwing one on for fun and seeing what happens. Hopefully I can use the some of the parts as I build a bigger motor

It is not so much of how much Hp/Tq it will put out, but how long it will put out. The turbos in those kits are garbage, so if anything, replace the turbo (Unless you like metal bits in your engine?)
