question is in the past 6 months i've been seeing more and more turbo set ups using ebay turbos from toyosprot t3/4 type .50 a/r with great results and lasting for years without issue . interesting debate because my opinion is change i don't why i should buy a garrett turbo £1200-1500 when for ten times less can buy a turbo which will give similar figures and from recent evidence last just as long. no doubt the majority will tell me that they are chinese crap that are built very cheap with cheap materials but i'm just going by what i've seen ,
mk3 ibiza runnning this set up for ages on low boost because on stock internals 300bhp 260 ft/lbs 12psi
mk4 golf drag car abused hard for 4 years with NOS 400bhp and 480 with nos and still running strong
mk2 escort running £150 turbo for over 4 years also running 557bhp and 480ft/lbs .
i've seen big gt28/30 fail after months . i'm interesting to here every opinions and views
