I'm going to guess, 'yes', but I aren't completely sure.

Like the name of the second one.

They have T25 turbine sides, which are the same as the housing size for stock R32/R33 turbos.

That's what my assumption was based on.

However, I have never actually physically done it.

The T25/GT28RS looks to be a standard GT28RS - just a different way of saying it.

thanks again for the effort in helpin but that lots just jibberish to me lmao not that much in the know with turbos as u might be able to tell. i do want to get the hks 2535 i think it is but i cant afford the 1800 quid for it yet lol

From what i know about XS-Power (SSautochrome), its cheap, it works, and it probably will break.

type ssautochrome in yahoo! and you will know what I mean.

My suggestion would be unless you are technical adapt and are able to do your own work and fix any problem that may araise, don't touch it.

Hudeani_R33 · 19th August 2006, 03:41 PM

lol yeh i know they are also called ssautochrome. i was looking into 1 of their inter coolers as the 1s of them i have seen seem to be good but i think i shall just save up for the hks turbo then. thanks for your help nocturnal.

There`s been lots of trouble with these cheap knock-off turbos. Google is your friend, I`m pretty sure you`ll skip these turbos after a bit of reading.

G-tuned · 24th August 2006, 10:16 PM

do not buy that turbo, xs turbos are of very low quality made in china sold in the US. I would never put on anything xs or ssautochrome in my engine.

thanks

WOW, was thinking of going for an SSAC intercooler but looking on Yahoo as Nocturnal advised kind of changed my mind. Found a link which shows (only) their negative and neutral Ebay feedback.It wasnt this that got me though as all sellers, especially those with loads of transactions like SSAC, have some negative feedback. Rather, it was the way they conducted themselves in replying to complaints that shocked me, pretty much coming across as an 'I dont give a sh1t" attitude and using quite impolite language (especially to a customer!!). Having previously worked in a customer service industry myself, from what I have seen I can say that this guy provides 0 customer service.
No, I will steer clear myself. Shame really as a comparable intercooler is gonna probably cost me 2 or 3 times as much now

.

Thanks nocturnal for saving me from the brink LOL

TT

Hudeani_R33 · 25th August 2006, 06:53 PM
