^ thank you

ok, got questions:

1. What does "Oil return hose and oil pan fitting " mean? We don't have an oil pan that will take a hose.
2. It's for "1.6L"? :wink:
3. What injectors are included?
4. Air intake (connects to stock air box -- hmmm, ok
5. Who is TSI and where are they located?

ok and this made me chuckle: "TSI Extreme turbo kits come included with many turbo upgrade items including downpipe" -- uh, that's not exactly an upgrade?

Alright, I asked my questions directly - let's see what they say.

It sounds good IF those questions get answered AND it's a real Garrett ball bearing turbo.

Cali any news on the kit??

[cali yaris]

^ They haven't replied yet. :-/

Now I will call them.

[cali yaris]

I replaced question #5 with "Which exact Garrett part number is the turbo?". I called them on the phone.

Doug was unable to answer any of the questions. He says he will reply by email.

I've given up on boost, but I do like hearing about people getting their shit called out! Go Garm!

I would think that if your kit is for sale (and I could buy it today) you would know the answers to these questions as a business.

sounds a little fishy to me. I am staying out of the boosted scene too right now as I still owe quite a bit on the car and don't want to prematurely blow anything up.

it is nice to know that there is still some people out there that will call companies on BS.

[cali yaris]

Well, we don't know the kit is actual BS yet, there are good reviews on the Honda forums. But I agree that a manager should know the answers to basic questions like I asked.

Anyways, I did get an email back, and now he is waiting to hear from the factory.... in China, of course. Here is what they said so far:

I tried to find instructions in my computer with no luck. I contacted the factroy and should have information tomorrow.

I have another photo of the kit and it shows a right angle threaded fitting fo r the oil return.

The turbo in the kit here is a T 20 earlier model P/N 466414-0006 I inquired if a Ball Bearing turbo wil fit.

The test car was in Taiwan and sometimes they have diffrent engine models but my paperwork shows 1NZ-FE
same as the Scion XB

We use a stand alone fuel system that includes 2 extra injectors that fit in the charge pipeing next to the throttle body.
They are 220's. 2 of them are enough to support 9 to 10 lbs boost.

Connects to stock air box so it can uae the MAF sensor.

I will get back to you with more info tomorrow.

Interesting, because there was no mention of a 1NZ kit anywhere on their website.

If the turbo isn't a real ball bearing Garrett turbo then the price is :thumbdown:

[cali yaris]

Also interesting that it's a discontinued Garrett part number?

No need to check. Stewie says Louise is fine...she is "sleeping" in the trunk of Brian's Prius for a little while.
