Default Is this a good deal???

I just ordered my turbo kit and was looking for a few extras, thanks to the advice of coppermine18, I found this Greddy turbo timer and boost controller combo and I was wondering if anybody thought that this was a good deal or not.

I ordered that same auction a few weeks ago. They ship from hong kong and they got here pretty quickly. A+ in my book.

Be aware of the knock-off brands on e-bay especially coming from over-seas.

you beat me to it
yea guys, be careful with anything in general coming from Hong Kong...I personally wouldnt even touch something thats coming from there...I forget where I saw it but there was a web site or something that showed you the differences to look into to tell between a real unit and fake one. Same thing with Tein springs...major knockoffs circulating.

IT"S NOT THAT GOOD OF A DEAL!
You're going to spend $359 on possible knock-off parts off Ebay from Hong Kong when you can buy them at www.jscspeed.com for $388 shipped and be assured of genuine Greddy parts?!
