Default turbo kits?

I was looking on ebay yesterday, and found turbo kits that fit the LS1 and there around $600 annnnd I'm a little sketchy on buying it. Anyone ever bought one, or knows someone that has. Thanks

There are a couple builds on here from them. Search around and you will find some. Also look at this:

do a search on ebay kits , you will find many build threads
to add to this if your getting a ebay kit only get the hot parts, everything else in the kit is junk
if your getting the hot parts then you still have a lot of work ahead of you, because its not just a bolt up kit,
if your looking for a bolt up kit, look at modular turbos twin turbo system, its 100% bolt up and go and in my opinion the best system for these cars

thanks for all the help I appreciate it a lot. I was looking at Turbo technologies and they want 6,000 dollars for a 76mm turbo kit. IMO that's a little pricey, and I don't have 6,000 laying around either. I will look into modular and the others you guys have listed. Thanks a lot!

Then forced induction is not for you if you think that's "pricey".

Aint that the truth! We are talking thousands and thousands of buxs even if you get a **** ebay kit..IMO you will prolly spend more going that route then just getting a 6k kit off the bat that bolts in 100%..ive got more then 6k in my turbo kit and a lot of it was custom.

Save some more $$$$ and buy a kit that is complete. It is worth the coin to save the headaches later.
