I don't watch topgear either and would definitely not take anything they say into consideration regarding reviews. They only review cars according to the fake personalities they have for the show and how they can make it entertaining due to same.

E.g. They spent years shitting everything that was in any way a competitor to anything made by Astin Martin. / Clarkson will always go for the more powerful car, may the most unusual / sedate etc.

The show is solely about entertainment for people that don't know shit about cars and the reviews suffer as a result

I watch it and love it... it makes me laugh... but by no means am I expecting a balanced and impartial car review made of nothing but substance... Hell, Fifth Gear is a bit better if you're after that... but I'm not, I want to see big powerful expensive cars sliding sideways while he talks about how the traction control appears to be malfunctioning.

Mystery buyer steps in at 5:59pm with an offer of 888k

was called & told my offer was beaten by $1000.

Bit disappointing they used my figure as a means to get the opposing party to offer one-up.

Even if my offer was +10k & the opposing party could only put up +5k, I'd still be out of pocket +10k...

Should have denied their call to close the deal today & see if it was a bluff...

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
