Okay i have a question I have a 350 which was board .40 over and stroked to a 383. i am wanting to see if i was able to go turbo and if so what would be a good simple set up and how much would i be looking at?
also i seen this turbo kit on ebay is this worth it or just plain trash?

As far as most are concerned there really isn't a full turbo kit which is usually true. As far as buy turbo "kits" from eBay its hit or miss. You can use some of the stuff but not all. There's people on TGO that have eBay items and are happy with them. Personally I can't say much on the kit bc I'm still currently putting my car together but. Is just be careful

I don't think there is a HEADER manifold in that kit!
NEVER USE EBAY OIL LINE KITS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! trust me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
keep looking. I have ebay turbo, blow off, wastegate, Intercooler and they are working good for me.

Poor Quality for the most part. Some people have had some luck.

ive used,installed tons of ebay turbo stuff, never had an issues except for one turbo that blew an oil seal, but it was my fault since i forgot to add a restrictor in the line, since my car made over 100psi of oilpresure at redline \even a name brand turbo would have blown out the seal.
#1 does ebay stuff work - yes
#2 is it as good as name brand stuff -no
as stated above though do not use the ebay oil feed and return lines they flat out suck and will leak or break
ebay blow off valves stay away fromt he greddy rs or type r style valves they leak, stick with an ebay rfl style bov,blitz style , or the tial style valves, i hear the ebay hks ssqv valves arent bad but i havent persoanly used them.
ive never had an issue with the ebay wastegates either
ebay intercollers both air to air and water to air work great
the tbolt clamps that come with ebay kits will snap the bolts if u over tighten them so dont over tightnen them

Thanks for the heads up guys, I already have my hotside done so I wasn't considering the headers, just the other misc. Stuff. Where would you recommend getting the oil lines at then?
Curious if anyone could get this kit to fit

Probably need to ditch power steering and possibly do something about the big brake booster/master combo...it would be a tight squeeze on drivers side for sure.

power steering will fit with the march kit. With the brake booster pushing the master cylinder out so far, the lines are about a 1/4 away from the header. I got rid of my booster and there is lots of room. If your going to spend the big money for this kit, you are better off getting it custom made. Welds suck, its too difficult to take off valve covers, and it would be nice to run 4" exhaust instead of 3". I heavily modified the headers moving them away from the valve covers and re routing the waste gate pipe, dumping it to atmosphere.Originally Posted by Orr89RocZ

Did that $5000 even include the intercooler?
