you pay for what you get. Like I've said," if you need to, save up a little more" these are the only three turbos I'd even consider: Garrett, Precision or Turbonetics. All three are good quality and best bang for the buck and are made right here. No JDM hype and extra money to pay for that JDM sterotype.

Greddy dosen't even make their own turbos. They're all made by mitsubishi then Greddy does their thing to them.

you buy what makes you happy and what serves you. However I would never buy a 200.00 stock or Ebay turbo. Thats just me so don't go getting crazy with the we all don't have money to burn.

And real bottom line is if you don't have the extra to play with the right way, then you shouldn't be moding, Cause you won't be able to fix it when it brakes.

My reasoning EXACTLY!

Is something goes wrong on xbgods car than no biggie, Fix it in his shop/driveway and be finished.

Something happens to mine, well I am screwed.

That is why I am going to get the best within my budget. If I have to wait a lttle, than so be it!

Yup, never trust mitsubishi turbos, they must absolutely stink. I mean they've only been turbocharging vehicles longer than most people on this forum have been alive. And it isn't like other manufacturers buy turbos from mistubishi directly to use on their cars either...

Sarcasm, I hope?

Cuz Greddy (mitsu) turbos are pretty good. There are better options but they
are decent turbos.

What are you looking for? Mitsu turbos are good so are the KKK turbos. How many vw/audi/porshe with a turbo failure. Garrett turbos seem to be more widely used because they were adopted by the aftermarket which means the flange style used is more common.
