i wouldnt even bother with them mate, they are cheap for a reason. If you are after a reasonably priced turbo i would look into a turbonetics unit, quality turbo and alot cheaper than garret etc.

Hey mate, I'm using a KLS T70 from eBay ATM till I get my gt35 rebuilt. Works quit well but they need a 1.8 or 2mm restrictor in oil feed line as the seals aren't very good. Had mine for 3 months and no problems. No doubt people have had good/bad experiences with them though. Not sure how they would handle huge boost though
