OBX Direct Bolt On Turbo anyone?

Any of you guys using or hav experience with this OBX Direct bolt on turbo? I'm on a budget and $600 for this sounds great. How much WHP on E85 do you think this is capable of?

Some trust parts on ebay, I am one that does not. Your $600 is better spent elsewhere. What are your current mods?

Save up and buy something reputable once instead of buying junk first and replacing it with something else when the inevitable happens.

Yes I think I should take my car to a shop and let them inspect/rebuild my turbo.

Have you got the other issues sorted out yet? I wouldnt throw money away on an Ebay turbo when you arent sure why the good one isnt making the power it should. My advice anyway.
