apexi turbo kit

[shaun]

hi just would like to no if they are any good its a gt25 turbo apexi kit cheers

I bet you have your eye on the 1 thats on ebay now yeh ?

 

[shaun]

lol yeah but i am not going to pay that for it looks ****ed but if it was cheaper i would

 

[crazybri]

yeah, for what is listed and the starting bid that they have i wouldnt bother...

the GT25 is a quick spooling turbo, i believe the apexi turbo's are actually IHI turbo's.

really, you are getting manifold, downpipe, turbo, intercooler and piping.. and its all used stuff.

i managed to get brand new stuff from the states for around the same price excluding the intercooler

Check out Welcome to Spoolin Performance - Spoolin Performance i got most of my stuff from there, prices are good, postage was good, i managed to get away with paying the duty on everything too! so saved a fortune there!

I had to wait around 4 weeks for the manifold and downpipe to be fabbed up which was longer that i expected, but the bloke seemed pretty decent and chucked it all my silicone couplers because of the waiting time.

so on the kit thats on ebay........ i'd definately have to say overpriced and u dont know how reliable.

Ta,

Bri

that kit is old and now discontinued, for its day it was a good kit, its still a good kit but don't expect too much power and god forbid you have to rebuild that turbo it will be a pain, and yes it is indeed an IHI unit...

I got the package kit with the log manifold, downpipe and dump tube, then ordered a 57trim T3, oil feed kit, tial 38mm WG, tial bov, and the spoolin 27x6 intercooler and bits of gaskets and bolts. i think all of that came to about £1200 with shipping.

I then managed to get some aluminium IC piping from the US for £75 shipped.

so say about £1300 for all that.

but then you've gotta think about all the fuel side and engine management ontop of the £1300 and i'd say about another £900 for all that, i ordered all that type of stuff from a place called phearable.net

Im from warrington by the way.

Thanks,

Bri
