:lol: Sometimes I wonder why people ask for the “g2ic community” for opinions and then throw in their if’s ands’ or but’s.Its like they try and get around the fact that this stuff is shit.“well if i get a glue gun will the turbo be ok?” “If i only boost 3 psi and gain no power at all with the mani still crack?” Face it people these parts are and will always be C R A P! You can get brand name parts for just as cheap if you look around.Stop being lazy and hoping the ssautochrome turbo you get in the mail will stay expoxied together. :tsk:
:lol: damn, that’s funny, epoxied together, that’s true, I wanted people to see what these guys sell. it’s not to bash on sellers but even when there product fails, they keep selling the same crap to consumers like you. I would hate to see a fellow G2er be suckered over this bullshit, that is why we are telling you not to get this. don’t support there garbage. let them go out of buisness, or start making quality parts( which that will never happen). I’m starting my own blacklist of garbage sellers and garbage products:
SSAUTOCHROME
XS-POWER-DOT-COM
STONE MOUNTAIN PRODUCTS
if they end up not warrentying it let me know… i might give u a few bucks for it… would be a nice item to put on the shelf to have people laugh at
ill still take one
do it, these pics are from a small percentage of the amout of shit SSauto has sold. I have used there un-braced manifold for 6 months, no cracks. any mani will crack if the car has NO flexpipe or BAD engine mounts. my friend just put one on his CRX, had it on there for about a month no cracks. the wastegate leaks a little all the time but, it still hits boost without a problem. when you buy this just know you might be buying new shit within 2 weeks. it is a gamble. I think they fixed there compressor housings because my friends turbo has a different comp. housing than the one pictured cracked in half. we’ll see, I’ll post any problems with his kit or my manifold.
got any pics of yourset up
and on that note you gotta consider what reply’s you will get
5% know their shit and know what to look for
5% tested/first hand exp.
90% pple just wanting to chime in a bash something they have never even held in their hands…
(Actually 90% just want to look out for eachother within the community and make sure no one buys leaky wastegates,glue gun turbos,or unbraced cheap manifolds.Do you really think we care if these people want to keep a poor seller on the market and waste their money on poor products?Not really.All you fans of ssautopoop can go ahead and knock yourself out.Fact of the matter is: This thread is titled:What do you think of this cheap kit? We are simply stating our opinions from feedback,visuals,and past experiences.If you dont want our bashes and insults then dont ask.Go ahead and run out to buy your ssautochrome turbo kit! :run: but hurry up theyre falling apart fast. :down:
a local member has got one on his h22a DA
and a few of his friends too
it looks like tis good enought for low boost at this time
cant beat the freaking price
edit if you follow a thread o h-t
people said he must of got a rebuild one when they did that cuz no ones was ever like that
thats exactly what im saying.call me cheap…but 500 for a kit is something i can afford ,if all i gotta sacrafice is lower amounts of boost it worth it.what the heck at least ill have a turbo.
The whole kit is :ghetto: My friend recently bought one for his g2. ya he got a deal but first off nothing fit right & if he didn’t have access to someone who knew how to fabricate and weld stuff back together he would’ve been Shit outta luck. He had his kit on two days and the mani cracked, the other day his o2 dump tub broke off. His car has also ran like complete crap ever since he put it on. He has been quoted saying “My car was faster without this P.O.S” So moral of this is Unless you can remake basically everything and can weld like a champ, not to mention has lots of extra money saved up then Stay very very far away from this JUNK! Oh and also if u void everyones info and go buy the kit anyways i HIGHLY suggest going out and buying a second car to drive you’ll need it
thats exactly what im saying.call me cheap…but 500 for a kit is something i can afford ,if all i gotta sacrafice is lower amounts of boost it worth it.what the heck at least ill have a turbo.
Quality aside, its NOT a complete kit, and its not even that great of a deal. Look around, you can find parts that aren’t as questionable for a similar price.
i agree why buy unknow quality parts and MAY end up with headache, worst part is u will be out of a car when that things break, u will be park on a side of the highway kickin urself in the ass, then u have to wait for the warranty proccess, and blah blah blah, why dont u go find a smaller custom turbo shop that u can actually c the item or just do a junk yard turbo with rebuild kit, is still cheap and u noe is gonna be reliable, plus u can boost up a notch or 2 without being worry, and ppl here is not haters we all hate hater, they just try to make u c the light
manifold,wastegate,turbo,and downpipe for 500 is far from a complete kit…Youll still need intercooler,injectors,fuel managment,oil lines,charge piping,and a bov if one isnt included.Now take the time to do the math.$500 to start,150 for cheap intercooler,60 for 450ccs,at least 200+or- for fuel managment,about 75 for oil lines and you gotta tap pan too which might cost or might not,another 100 or so on piping,and 60 on a dsm bov.These are all the cheapest prices to complete a homemade turbo kit with ssautoshit .That comes out to $1145!!! I spent less than this for my homemade kit which consists of better parts! Hello :think: why do you insist on buying this shit? Im done here do what you want people. :blah:
Did you have a flex-pipe in the downpipe? these NEED to be there with ANY manifold. Also broken engine mounts will KILL manifolds. was the car tunned at all? a FMU or a AFC hack is NOT tunned.
I had been running an ss manifold for 6 months, no cracks. my boy just went 13.4 @ 106mph at 7psi with the shitty SS autocrap kit. at 7psi he made 187hp(6.2k rpm) & 178ft/lbs(4k rpm) at the wheels. 158k mile LS(in a CRX).
congrats on the ssautoshit success 
:lol: :lol: :lol:
congrats on the times, he better be 
that it last!!
yup he had a flexpipe , and it was tuned. 
to the time but he better have 
it stays together
were hoping it stays together for at least 1 yr… we’ll see. its a weekend beater so, something is gunna break before the turbo kit goes.
i have seen this kit work wonders. a freind of mine is running 8psi on a b18b and went 13.3@110 mph and a shitty 60’. the kit does work and runs fine from what i have seen. but then again i have seen more horror stories than good.
for 600 bucks u can get urself a revhard mani and a tial wastegate and just save up the rest for a turbo and everything else needed. shit my turbo setup right now is going to be costing me about 1500-2000 and i bet i make more power than that. and thats with all quality parts :rockon:
