would be interesting to see how good they are, due to the fact, all different chinese factories, have different qulaity control. As we all know, Honeywell Garrett now manufactures in china, so, if you get it right, you might have a good product.

alot of guys in the states use them with good results. google it, mustang forums have wars over them against the big brand guys.

20-07-11, 01:49 GMT+10#20 IMO I wouldn't trust anything made in China that has to spin at or over 100,000rpm. There are exceptions though like the china turbos that have been properly rebuilt and balanced before being sold. You might save a few dollars in the short term but how much is a new engine going to set you back when the turbo feeds it her compressor blades. yumm yumm.
Honestly stick with Garrett, they use them as OEM turbos for a reason...
Good luck mate
