Did you notice that it says place bid starting at 400 and the reserve is not yet met. Guess you should actually pay attention before calling bs on @!#$.

I've never heard of it, but nice looking pipes Looks like you would have to run a new coolant resevior also.

I can't say anything about the turbo that it comes with, but I can tell that isn't your everyday cheap ass "ebay turbo kit"........It comes with braided lines and a turbo header.

Yeah, the seller says he's going back to school. Probably to get his Masters in Bovine Waste Management.

the intercooler looks way to tall. i highly doubt that thing would work on a J, not unless you like completly cut out the center of the bumper support, lol... then what good is it?

love the piping, very shiney

I've seen these kits floating around for a long time. The turbo is a factory .48/.42 from a chrysler (note the flange and the cast downpipe). The intercooler is too tall and too narow, not to mention the end tanks are a poor shape. The header looks poorly designed and may be made from 16g stainless at best. And the sheer volume of piping involved in that kit is scary .... I could redo my entire kit two to three times with all of that. And those are just the basics .... I could go on. Personally I wouldn't waste your money on this kit.

That isn't what I meant. Typical ebay kits come with rubber oil feed/return lines, rubber couplers and a log style manifold. All I meant is that there is a greater chance of this being a legit (custom made) turbo kit. And not necessarily that it is.

Okay what's wrong w/ log style turbo manifolds? Do they not perform well at all? Do they suck donkey balls?
