WHATEVER!!! maybe for you honda guys they are okay, but on DSM's they are SHIT. Not bashing you honda guys whatsoever, but everyone I've seen on a DSM has failed... and fast. the manifolds will crack very easily and very soon on a DSM. I'll just stick with the name brand quality stuff.

My car had xs power stuff on it and i am having to replace it all piece by piece. Save your money, look around on here, club civic, and honda tech and find your-self quality parts. Seriously, if you look around and have some patience, you can find quality stuff for really good prices, and you will only have to spend the money once.

I'm running a xs-power intercooler kit on my car and the quality is great. I'll stick with the name brand turbos but the intercoolers are good.

Find a cheap turbo kit with a cast manifold and buy a rebuild kit for the cheap turbo that come in those kits and you should be fine.

I think the kits are good for what they are. The major areas that have to be addresses are the turbo quality and the manifold quality. Just replace those when they break, and the kit shouldn't be that much of a bad investment. If you wanna get boosted cheaper than a swap, this is for you.

I never bought a kit from them but I did order a manifold from them. I didn't expect much anyways the manifold cracked and I was running 12 psi. This was on my CA hatch

I take it these have no affiliation with the brand "Turbo XS"

I don't know about on hondas, but xs power intercoolers for the mr2 have higher fin density and better cooling capabilities than greddy and hks units. Plus, mine came with a shit ton of T-bolts.

That's the only thing I would ever buy from them though.

lol I would hope not but this is where they trick people by having close to the same name

Try this site Spoolin Performance (www.spoolinperformance.com) it's where I got my mani from. Real cool guy.
