    worst advice ever. You may be one of the lucky ones for your shit not to tank, but talking from experience and im sure 98% of others on this site would agree not to go that route. Why do you think the generic turbos on ebay are so cheap....if your going to get turbo off ebay, get a quality brand, or wait for PRIVATE seller to let a legit one go for cheap.

    Why spend money on shit that's going to break? Do it right the first time. Whats the matter saving up a few weeks longer for a quality manifold, and turbo? Some people do get extremely lucky with their ebay parts though. If you have good luck keep doing it, but the quality I've seen is nothing compared to other designs.
