We use a local foundry for our castings and all the welds and fabrication are done in house. By the way you would be surprised were most of the parts on your car were made.
Regarding the turbos, we are not making that up anywhere. We are taking a loss and have upgraded the people on the group buy at no cost since they have had to wait for an extended amount of time.

The intercooler core is just an example. I have seen countless heat exchanger failures in both R&D and field environments. Stress corrosion cracking, corrosion fatigue, de-lamination, etc...
Actually I wouldn't be surprised, I work for an automotive OEM. But as I said before, it depends on your QA/QC in the foreign production facilities. How is yours in China?
I understand you are losing on the price difference between the turbos and it cut in to your profit. I'm also not naive enough to think you are selling the kits at a loss now.
