Default EBAY TURBO kits, anyone got one?

LEt me start off by saying i have no interest in turboing my car with one of these kits (car will be sold ASAP once the warranty goes out next year and will move on)

But a few of my friends with these kits have seen some amazing results and i was never tempted until i was offered to get one installed for free if i bought one. However it is way too hard to find a tuner out here within 1000 kilometers, so I will pass on that offer.

I was just wondering if any GTO owners have had any succes with an ebay turbo kit?

That is just a bundle of ****, packaged together.

A piece of garbage turbo and IC that are both WAY too small for an LS engine.
It's missing everything else needed such as the Hot piping from the engine to and from the turbo, wastegate BOV and much more.

I absolutely HATE these Ebay scam artists.

BINGO! You won't get too far with this kit with that shitty turbo and intercooler and NO HOT SIDE PIPING. I see no crossover or downpipe or ******* anything...
