Any one in particular or just in general? do you have a link?

The thing with ebay is that you get what you pay for, so if you try to go cheap you wont find any good products, just junk that might work fine for a little bit or might not work at all, so, if you decide to give it a chance don't go cheap, that is just my 2 cents :thumbsup:

What about this whole turbo setup?
I may be mistaken but it seems like a solid kit.
He also has good feedback from buyers of turbo kits that I read.

first, that is not the kit you need, that is for the 4g63 (eclipse gst/gsx) you need the one for the 420a (eclipse gs/rs)
second, a kit is not that cheap, remember you get what you pay for

http://www.turbo-kits.com/eclipse_turbo_kits.html

can you see the difference? or you can put your kit together and can be cheaper than that, but not as cheap as the e-bay one
and thrid, again

hope it helps

thanks man this really did help, the reason i was looking at the 4g63 kit was because im about to buy a gsx, i actually looked at one the other day, it had a few problems so i may just wait it out for another seller.
thanks again!

well, to be honest those are the same problems that almost every turbo has except the good ones start to have those problems after 70k miles, not 7k miles

Well i wouldnt trust it just because of the fact that when it comes to ebay you get what you pay for, im planning on a custom kit and would recommend the same for anyone, its more money to do it right but in the long run its worht it :)
