Default Anyone use this Turbo kit?

ran across the xs power 2jzge Turbo kit ive read a few good reviews... havn't seen anything really bad about it so far. anyone on the forum use it? im not looking for a 10 second car or am i expecting it to actually get the 330whp it claims but a nice boost of power would be nice. any one know first hand?

worked on an is300 with an ebay turbo kit. Made 325 whp at 14psi and sent the car off. The following day got a picture of a the blades being bent to hell and missing chunks. Dont know whether something flew into the turbo or from boosting. Making the power is possible i just dont know how reliable the turbo would be. I say run the kit but with a brand name turbo.

Garrett, Holset, Turbonetics, Precision, Borg Warner, etc. Just look them up and I suggest if you are thinking about going NA-T to research some of the build threads. They will really help you understand what you have to do and learn alot about your car!

Ive been running the kit for over 2 years and 30k+ miles with ZERO issues with it.

So, i can tell you 100% that mine is reliable.
