Default STFA as there was some discussion on this very guy last week.

I think someone indicated that he gave out some wrong information about the turbos...see more in this post about the inlet pipes. Extra $$.

I've bought and sold turbos over using ebay, w/o issue. I do try to stay away from those with some of the comments he has. And, the price is not exactly a bargin. I'd stick with some of the known suppliers, IMO. Especially since it will cost you more in the end, buy getting the inlet pipes seperately.

Default the inlet piping and such required will cost you another $399 on top of that...

you can buy the K04's and the inlet pipes, complete with gaskets and hardware from both ECS and AWE for $2350 so it's actually cheaper to use one of these more known resellers,
