Default Take a look...what do you think?

I still think I can build a safe and reliable turbo set up for my H22...This turbo has caught my eye for a while and I wanted to know what the experts (you!) thought about it.

it doesnt look like a real garrett turbo. it is a company called air research. im not sure on how good these turbos on so i couldnt help you. but i would stick to the name brands like greddy, turbonetics or garrett.

from what I understand...is that Airesearch and Garrett are the same. But if it's not then I won't buy it.

a turbo is a serious investment so just do your research before you go get one.

It's got the OEM part number on the auction page. Just look it up and do a little research on it.

garrett is the parent company for air research so=same thing as honda, acura-toyota, lexus, whatever. But for that kinda price, i would have to imagine somthing is wrong. Garrett is a great company that dosent come with that cheap of a price tag. Even my .42AR Air research was $400
