i was wondering if anyone has bought anything from this company as far as a turbo or blow off valve. Wondering if they are good products and a good company to deal with.. any information would be useful....

Thanks

 

I don't know anything about their turbo's or BOV's, but from what I heard the manifolds require work to get them to fit right. I have a set of 4-1 headers from them, they are alright but the coating flaked off in less than two days. There customer support sucks as well...

 

Not to be an a$$, but do some searchin dude. We have a nickname for them at this site. "SSAutocrap". I woudnt buy any turbo stuff form them at all. They have a few different company names. One of them i believe is XS Power. Their turbos will literally fall apart, like theyll just crack in half. DOnt buy anything that has many moving parts from them. I even hear that their Turbo manifolds will crack on you.

 

I did search to no aval. nobody has ever bought a turbo or BOV from them. so unless you searched under something different then i did i don't know why you are evening telling me to search. i know how to search before i ask.

 

dont buy a turbo from them. only thing that is OK, not good, are their header and catback which is really the motoria exhaust

 

Everything they sell is cheaply made crap. Now, in 99% of non-turbo apps this is okay (header, exhaust). But anything even remotely turbo related will NOT hold up. They use ridiculously thin metal and horrible welding that will blow/warp/crack if you just look at it wrong.

Some people have had the turbo manifolds rewelded and braced with some luck, but you just added another $100+ to the cost. Some high-hp people have done all that and then had a primary tube crack or break because the metal is so thin.

Note: this is Hyundais as well as all other car forums I frequent.

 

I have the turbo manifold, BOV (RFL copy) and catback (2.5" SS) from them. They are all great, considering the price. They are not the top money can buy, but for the price, you can't beat them.

I personally never had a problem with their CS; quite the contrary. They always replied to me within 5 hours, and shipped damn, and I mean DAMN, fast.

The manifold won't crack if you support the turbo. I have a tiny tiny bracket holding the turbo to the dipstick screw, and it's alright. The BOV is a perfect copy of the true RFL as I can tell, and it's damn loud wink1.gif The catback is just great considering it's price, but the resonator sucks. Still a good deal though. I paid like 250$ CDN for it!

 

Do not buy ANY turbo products from them.


And it's not just the Hyundai scene having problems with them.

 

I have ask from them to get a quotation for header and i havent' got the reply from them, i have send bundles of emails and i got the reply after 03 weeks. Very difficult to communicate with them.

 

I bought a 4-2-1 header off them. It worked alright but it started to show rust after a short while.
