hmm well my friend has it, he said that its junk, makes to many problems, he just rebuild it because of "one" the problems, now he change it to a better setup with a bigger turbo which i dont know which kind. should go with dezod. even though some of its options has turbonectics parts, still good setups. i've seen them and everyone here and people i know are satified with it.

do a water cooled setup and you should be fine... otherwise, buy some aspirin and prepare for a lot of headaches. Turbonetics has built a rep as having some horrible turbos...

Yeah the turbo withoutthe water cooled option will break at some point. I went through 3 turbos before I changed my setup. My brother is still running turbonetics but with the water cooled one and it seems to standup alot better. No problem so far and he's been running it for awhile now.

Every turbo has oil lines. Oil lubes the bearing and provides some cooler. Water will keep the bearing section much cooler. I've never seen a ball bearing turbo without and water cooler center section besides turbonetics turbos. Why they didnt offer the water cooled option from the beginnin I dont know.

they told me that the kit they were tryna install is from an early 07 model
so i cant get it done...the unichip had to be hardwired and the maf didnt fit
im kinda ____ed but kinda not
everything happens for a reason right?
everyone hates on turbonetics so im assuming their not the greatest

The fit of the turbonetics kit is great if you get the right kit for your car. Me and my dad installed it with no problems in about 10 hours. The only problem has been the turbo but the customer survice at turbonetics is great.

okay thanks guys! so recommendations are basically turbonetics for good fit
but dezod for no problems?
i guess i need more research for a turbo and it seems turbonetics doesn't make a kit for the 07 with the small maf..i wanna boost so bad haha..idkk =/

ive never encounter any problems with my turbonetics turbo, so far. been driving it for a year. but if it starts having some problems, will turbonetics replace it even if my 1 year warranty is over?? i mean everybody that has the kit seems to have had problems with the turbo right??
