    so i have a 2.5rs and thought i could use a turbo upgrade. i was lookin at ebay for cheap turbo stuff and saw this...? Says it gives 10+ HP and also better mileage. I get pretty crappy mileage now so it could be cool to get better - gas is getting expensive! I figured hell its only like $20...might as well try it.

    this is a joke right??


    you're not serious....

    EDIT: assuming you ARE serious. why don't you try to find out why the gas mileage is getting worse? chances are its compression and the motor is probly on its way out. but could also be the plugs, timing belt, oil seals, etc. instead of putting a cheap eBay part that does nothing on a motor that might be able to be saved

    I think he is serious. Don't get that crap OP, just by looking at it made me laugh. It reminded me of those "chips" that sold for 3 bucks and gave 50+HP according to ebay.

    Judging by his previous posts... I'm calling Shens.. There is no way anyone even remotely into cars would even consider this item.
