so i just read about the ssautochrome turbo from ebay and people who bought it and broke it in and ran a oil restrictor has no problems with them.. they been running it for over a year now... anyone on here tried these cheap kits???

i ran an ebay kit on my single cam fine. everything worked like it was suppose to. just make sure you get a cast iron mani so cracking will be less of a worry. my kit came with an oil restrictor on the feed line so i ran it, whether it helped or not i don't know. i really have never heard of "breaking in" a turbo kit so i don't know what you mean by that... i'd suggest looking at one of the more complete kits at around 600 shipped
just remember, never skimp on the tune, i used hondata s300 and brought it to a reputable shop for tuning.

^ Get the ecu chipped with a basemap. Most people on here recommend phearable.com You'll want to get the car tuned to get the most you can out of the turbo. You'll also need a way to get the oil to the turbo. Either run an oil filter sandwich plate or a tapped oil pan.
