I would not buy one of their turbos based on other products i have used from that company.

BUT i heard somewhere they were making billet turbos nowadays so can you post pics or a link?

God that is a difficult post to read. There is a brand of turbos called Autobahn? My god.

I think the others have summed it up pretty well, don't buy an autobahn88 turbo, even as a joke. I'm really only posting to get my count up. Turns out you can't pm with less than 10 posts

autobahn88 is an ebay seller ID, not a brand of any sort despite how well marketed their adds look.

I had a cooler kit on my last car from this Autobahn88, was an ADM S15 and had no issues with it, made same power as every other S15 (mod for mod) even if they had big $$$ coolers...buying a turbo off them however...hmmmm, bit different...fast moving parts and all that jazz....

[dano4127]

intercoolers you can get away with it but as you said turbos no thanks

When you consider how vital the turbo is to making the power in your engine why muck around and try go for shortcuts cause you will eventaly spit the dummy and change beacuse its shit, if you look for cheaper alternatives then use turbos such as hypergear since there are people on the forums using them and have had good results for the money spent

For cheap bang for your buck, its not that efficient or modern but its still better than the stock one, make 260 easy and has made >300 KKR

Mark says yes

ON topic: better off seeing what other people are running, have a look in the turbo result section

He has asked the question here to which I replied, some China/cheap stuff is fine, its just a matter of finding a good one, speak to some workshops, they should be able to recommened a cheaper turbs, but if money is no object go a new garret as the technology of the cheap stuff is 10 yrs old and the new stuff is much more efficient.

my vote is for a hypergear hiflow, great price and you get to keep the same turbo appearance so no cop troubles!

hi, im curious as to how much it would cost to get one of these done, and what sort of gains/loss will i get?

something along the lines of bigger power figures in the top end, but slightly more turbo lag?

thanks.

more mid range and top end power, less low down power and a couple hundred rpm more before it gets on boost
