ebay t3 turbo Reply #3 – June 26, 2009, 07:52:03 PM I have been running one for the last couple of years. whats the problem with them? they do not have cooling ports for liquid cooling but if you take care of them as far as letting them cool down properly they will last and they boost better than any other turbo I have used. for the money they are well worth it.

He bragged about how he was buying a turbo for less than a couple hundred bucks new. His lasted a week and half, a couple of dyno runs later it was burning oil. I'm not saying they're all like that, but I've heard/seen my fair share of eBay turbo stories. But if you've used a couple of them and had no problems they may not all be bad. Which one did you buy? I could use a cheap turbo to play with myself... Quote Selected

If you've had luck with 'em I'll sure give one a chance. Now I've just got to find something to stick one on :hick:. Quote Selected
