Chinese Turbos
Anyone use one? Any good? I would like to stay in the 400$ range or so...I can also get a rebuilt turbo for 450$ Thoughts? Thanks!

I always fall back to my Uncles advice , you get what you pay for.
And Ray Stevens, our car owner and crew chief, he used to say, “go cheap and you go home” Meaning the part won’t stand up for the main and break during qualifying. And my Dad’s words still hold water, if you’re gonna repair anything, do it right the first time. Get quality parts, a little more money or double the cost? Which is the better deal? |
Let the Honda guys buy the Chinese turbos, that Chevy of yours deserves OEM Quality!

I could see buying Chinese floor mats for example. But the turbo??? Definitely quality one. Even if it is double the cost.

Rebuilt would be my choice, I posted links in your other thread

Im going to buck the trend a little, I have had good experiences with chinese turbo's on LS powered vehicles. My brother is currently making 800hp with a $399 76mm. I will say that I dont think you will get quite as long of a life, but probably still fairly long. maybe 50k-100k instead of 100k+

Thanks...I ended up buying a used turbo for 450$ with 16K on it the next town over from me!
