Default "New" eBay Stainless Truck Manifold Turbo Kit for $595?...

i was looking around researching truck manifold turbo kits because im in the process of collecting parts for my LQ4 swap.

what do you guys think of the kit?





---------

seems pretty simple because its just the piping... no bovs, turbos, intercoolers included. decent deal for something to "build off of"? or a waste?

Buy it and try to make it fit. Worst case scenario you have to cut and reweld some pieces to fit and buy a non chinese turbo.

yeah thats what i was thinking specially since it would be going into my chevelle(lh8 pan), i dont know how to weld to save my life - and if i did have to get a shop to "fix" or reroute things i dont think my wallet would suffer toooo much.

and i could see how just a "pipes" kit would be worth only 600 - but it still seems out of the ordinary.

That merge at the turbo seems weird, plus that crossover pipe is going to be hanging pretty low since it looks like it would have to cross under the motor/trans.
