Default TBKO Turbo

Does anyone have the TBKO Stage 1 turbo kit? If so how does it run? How long was the install? Any info would be great. Thanks

If you don't get the response you need in here try http://is300.net also. There are some people in there that are running tbko. I believe fairuza11 has tbko.

No, fairuza11 has XS Engineering Turbo Kit. Guru22 and MrMark have the TBKO turbo kit.

IS300GTE doesn't have the TBKO kit anymore. He did the 2jz-gte/6 speed swap.

yeah I have the XS kit.. but I have seen the TBKO kit and knnow both jeff and GTE and very good friends with Mr. mark and he loves his kit...I would recommend them if you are into turbo'ing your car... but you cant got wrong with Powerhouse or ...Toyomoto either..

just so others can hear another side to it.... i wouldn't trust Jeff or GTE as far as i could throw them.... i wont deny jeff knows his stuff, as well as gte, but they dont know **** about customer service... maybe they're learning... but if i were to spend 6+ thousand dollars... i wouldn't spend it on someone who is learning, i would spend it on someone who already knows what its all about.

learning.....haha...yeah..i guess thats what you call someone who can do massive swaps and that builds cars with 600-700+ rwhp....

maybe as car as customer service....yes..they might not be the best...but as far as quality and performance...one of the best...

i know they are learning probably from other exper. that i will not get into again, but hey...everyone makes mistakes in a business.....but look at it this way....try them out for yourself..and if you are not happy go somewhere else....as far as myself...im with jeff and GTE all the way...
