LOL, you will be lucky if that turbo stays in one piece for more then 100 miles. Don't skimp on parts that feed into an expensive engine.

I wouldn't buy a turbo kit from a site that cant even get spelling and grammar right, after that the kit is still junk, that kit has been asked about here before, the answer has always been its junk.
