Beast of a turbo definitely ready to see what it can do

Everything is good and comes with what it says it comes with, it’s a great beginner turbo that doesn’t break your wallet, highly recommend

1st of all, just know the turbo in the pic is the one that will arrive if you order it., not some other GT45 that looks different or has no branding.2nd of all, you should be aware, this turbocharger is a dang BRICK!!! physically it's not much larger than any turbo you might have seen before but the exhaust housing is cast and machined from a steel with high strength and heat cycle tolerance---- being a true divided housing there is quite a bit more metal in the casting than youd find in say like an HY35 or HE351.... The unit arrived assembled, exhaust housing is draped in brown paper soaked in machine oil probably against oxidation (rust), the paper wrapped and oiled turbo was also inside a heavy gauge clear plastic bag zip ties shut so the oil can't leak out and ruin the shipping carton. Standard Amazon box inside of a box with cushioning of more compressed paper.I was sort of disappointed there was not included a data info sheet about the trim, dimensions, A/R number, etc... Or even slightly more details about the process they do before a turbo is ready to use. Instead the included handbook was an advertising brochure for maxspeedingrods... sorta funny considering I'm already a customer, I don't want your fancy junk it's just gonna go in the trash. WHERE IS THE PROPER DATA SHEET. IT COULD LITERALLY BE ONE SINGLE PAGE IN BLACK AND WHITE.back in the day, not long ago, when a race team got a turbocharger--- if not from specific turbo shop, the team would have to tear the new turbo down to verify tolerances, inspect bearing surfaces, verify order of assembly sometimes replace substandard internal parts and then rebuild it before using. Now we have a lot more options available and I suspect Maxspeedingrods is doing a fine job of it. I say that I 'suspect' and give four stars because #1 I have not used the turbo yet#2 would have liked a more detailed data sheet.... You could even skip the full color glam printing on glossy paper.

Does not come with V bands and the bands you need are off sizes. I have ordered twice and still yet to get the correct size. If I knew it was going to be this difficult to get the correct bands for it then I would have went with a different brand.Also leaks oil into the intake side and has shaft play, before firing it up. I added the oil to the center like it said and it weeped through. This is brand new! It appears to be worn out, straight out of the box. Be cautious with this, it is worth spending more to get a better brand.

Showed up fast, good customer service, makes boost, burns tires.... what more do you need

Well packaged, arrived on time,no shaft play spins smoothly all around impressed with quality A+

Ok first off this thing is built well its not cheap! Second the only reason it's not 5 stars is because the packaging is lack... the box was destroyed!!! Badly!!! Luckily it doesn't seem anything missing!! Haven't hooked it up yet but seems promising!

A big beast of a Turbo, make sure you have enough of an engine to use this on.
