Eeekk... XS Power. Those are the ones that are just glued together from the factory. I would personally return it and get something of decent quality, but it's up to you. Good luck.

ugh you people and your ball-bearing turbo ideas...The only thing ive seen from a bb turbo is it spools 100rpms quicker and costs $500-1000 more. Plus...they cant be rebuilt! you gotta buy a new center cartridge Put a sc34 on there...make 300hp...and call it a damn day...it will bne way more than your used to...and youll have full boost at right around 3500rpms. most likely sooner.

a couple friends of mine have xs power turbos, no problems. my one buddy who had a 350whp 6th gen coupe said stay away from precision turbos he went threw like 4 in a 2 month period. They all had bad shafts.

I dont see whats wrong with the xs power turbos, have you heard any horror stories, i got it in the mail today and its spanking brand new, no shaft play, and has a 2 year warrenty

Yup- I've heard horror stories. Search on Honda-Tech. Shit... you can't search for "xs" on Honda-Tech.

all we ever run are precision turbos...I have a serious doubt that your going to be happy with that turbo. But hey its up to you...keep it tell us how it holds up. But i know for a fact, as soon as you try to warranty it, they are gunna come up with something that makes it your fault.
