Twin turbo kit for $1,200
 
1 Attachment(s)
Not sure where to place this thread since I'm new. Was searching for twin turbo kits and founds this vendor selling a twin turbo kit for $1,200. Here is the link for reference on eBay, TinyURL.com - shorten that long URL into a tiny URL. The vendor is named "karobskollection" with 98.4% postitve feedback from 5,173 orders allegedly processed. Has anyone ever heard or this vendor? I think this is too good to be true.:rolleyes:

There are times in life you can not afford to be cheap, I'm thinking this would be one of those times ;)

DavidZ370 06-25-2014 11:58 PM

this isn't a Honda.

Good luck with your 2014 blown motor goals OP.

You get what you pay for.

Yes.

brutusvk 06-26-2014 02:11 AM

Read the comments in ebay too.

jwick 06-26-2014 06:04 AM

Wow. I'm only going to make one statement. It's going to cost you 10-15k to properly turbo your Z. Anyone is welcome to deny it but everyone that has taken the plung and actually done it is going to come back with this :iagree:

aszyd 06-26-2014 06:55 AM

FPenvy 06-26-2014 07:58 AM

Zoren 370 06-26-2014 08:04 AM

I could probably can use this on my made in china lawn mower!

SouthArk370Z 06-26-2014 08:24 AM

This is either a once-in-a-lifetime deal or a ticket to your worst nightmare. I can't be sure but I'm betting on the latter.

Now that's more like it. :iagree: totally, except for the no hope thing. Foolishly perhaps, I am eternally hopeful, just not hopeful enough to think I could get a useable twin turbo kit, shipped free BTW, for $1200. So, yup ... :shakes head:

Duc_Z09 06-26-2014 09:04 AM

What? Sounds like a good deal...

Not to mention that the intercooler pictured cannot possibly work with a dual intake TT setup

Or I spent more on my clutch/flywheel/HD CSC than this entire kit.

My favorites.

Do not do it.

Cyber99zulu 06-26-2014 12:06 PM

Not doing the $1,200 turbo kit and going to go with either Greddy or GTM Twin Turbo Kit. I just posted this because I knew the price was way too low and to get other peoples feedback about the eBay listing.

I have no history with GTM, but from what I have been reading on this forum, they may no longer be a viable option. You may want to look towards Fast Intentions. Their products may have a wait time, but most owners are happy with the end result.

I purchased a set of their headers based on what I read here.

^^^^^This^^^^^

There's nothing wrong with the GTM kit except you have no idea if you will ever received it. I would steer clear of them until they can dig themselves out of the MHI Group Buy hole they are in. You should also look into the BP kit. I'm running it and many other forum members are also. We are all happy with it. Your top choices should be:

TT - Fast Intentions
ST - Boosted Performance

It was fun if for nothing else than the opportunity to raise an eyebrow ... or two ... ok half dozen.

unless youre running the 7AT. then BP will not be an option since they wont make a kit for it.

simple solution......Fast Intentions all day :tup:

Not to muddy the water since this is 'the370Z' site but Tony doesn't make a kit for a G, yet, so it wasn't an option for me.
