I'm debating if i should or shouldn't it's not like i wouldn't spend the money on a Garrett really i was just curious if any one every used the god speed ones before i was surfing around and saw it that's all and i know god speed made other parts because i have a godspeed radiator in my p10 now that holds up great. I wanted to try to aim for high 300s or low 400s right not i have a basic set up but i was going to install the DP and i got 550 injectors and some N1 cams and probably was gonna go with a jwt ecu

Ever seen what a turbine wheel looks like when cast from china? Compare it to a turbine wheel from Garrett, IHI/Mitsubish, Precision, Borg Warner, etc...

2. Because you're not very budget minded when you need to rebuild a motor and replace a turbo after you've blown it.

3. The ONLY "eBay" kit I would buy to repair a turbo if not an OEM kit, would be a KAMAK. Oh, that's Korean though, and not chinese/Taiwanese.

while i TOTALLY agree........ this makes things more interesting

1 year warranty (must be installed by certified mechanic)

i would like to know the full stipulations on this..............

You have to send them a copy of the ASE cert for the warranty claim.

lol, what are we talking here? a copy of the original work order, and the ASE cert of the tech who did the work? just a general engines ASE? or master tech ASE? i have no real interest in buying one, im just curious how they go about this warranty claim.

It's water cooled, not sure what your question is?

I wouldn't buy it though. Chinese CHRA. Meh.
