Yes, they fit 2003-2006 and you can expect about 15whp gain.

XSPower is not a brand, it is a guys ebay name. He has flipped so many parts from companies in china on ebay they have begun to put his name on the parts he gives them to copy.

Your assumption of them being the same from the same place is 100% exactly correct.

If they are a subsidiary of SS Autochrome, I would say they come close to a company.

Well ssautochome isn't a company at all either. It's just some guys ebay user name. The ssautochrome name is so popular because he the pioneer of knock off auto parts on ebay.

SSAC is a guys ebay name that everyone thinks is a company because of the power of the internet. He buys his parts from a company called MOTORIA in china and he lives in north carolina, big deal. How's that prove anything? If you think he is making all these products in a shop in north carolina for those prices you are in for a big surprise. It is common knowledge these are overseas parts more often than not poorly copied from actual name brand parts. Some times you get a good copy like this housing (though admittedly sub par, hence the coating), and sometimes you get a really bad copy like their 16g turbo. I'm sure his turbos are made in the same shop in north carolina, right?

No one said they make them. You said it was not a company. This point is over. Arguing with the misinformed just brings the informed down to their level. I'm done with you.
