GodSpeed Turbo, Garbage?

[SupraSean]

I was looking around the other day, and ran across this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/GODS...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories
haha. now everything in my gut tells me to stay away, but it just keeps coming back to "but its sooo cheap" lol just a second thought on more ebay garbage most likely

i think your right, it would be better if the seller had more pics of the turbo since he's claiming its new and the only pic shows a little piece of the turbo and not much more so its kind of hard to verify the condition based off that little bit he shows.

Plus I honestly havent heard much from Godspeed or how there products are so I couldnt tell you if its worth it or not, but in my experiences you get what you pay for

Scroll down on the ebay page and it shows alot more angles of the turbo. But, personally, godspeed is garbage to me. I bought a radiator from them, and when it came the neck wasnt even on the thing! there was no connection at the top, then they wanted to bs me about how i "messed" with the product....

so in easy terms, they fucking blow.

Looks like all the other cheapie turbos out there to me. I have been running one for about 35k miles now, but its not nearly that size. O.O

Yea I saw those but the small picture of the turbo looked much dirtier than the ones below, I think those pictures are just copied from Godspeed's website, but that's crap that they say you messed with it, sounds like someone is not trying to honor their warranty

Probably be fine if you were running it to 5psi but most people upgrade a Turbo with a much higher HP expectation and then wonder why the cheap ones fail and take out their engine, performance costs plain and simple you can't cut corners if you want it to be reliable.

You wouldn't run an engine to redline then throw a handful of aluminium scrap into the open TB....

:rofl: Exhaust trim: 1.32 ar

What you plan on using to spin that sucker? I a Duramax 6.6 Diesel engine ??

Now that would be a interesting swap that i have never seen in a Supra !!!

Probably work fine with an SP QuickSpool valve and 30+psi
(right to the point the CHRA explodes and takes out the hood)

Im still not sold on the quick spool valve. I know you and a few others are running it, but Im just not see "how". But that talk is for another thread.

Think of a garden hose, block half it's nozzle with your finger and the flow speeds up, it's not rocket science and brilliant in it's simplicity Rob
