I was looking at the t4 replica turbo on eBay , but before I put it on, have it rebuilt with good parts ?

doesn`t that just totally defeat the point of buying a cheap turbo?.

Not when the turbo costs 300 quid and I know where will do it for 200 quid and a genuine ones well over a grand, so saving at least 500 quid

I have had no issues with cheap turbos, on of my customers AGU is running an £150 ebay T304e now at 424bhp (500bhp with nos)  and was the 1/4 quickest mk4 2wd in the UK 12.3s @ 123mph

I have one waiting to go on my car.. :wink:
