Yeah, the CA18DET has a .48 A/R M25 housing, so it’s not one of those. Far as I know, the RB26DETT and VG30DETT had smaller T22 turbos, but I’m not sure of the A/R.

I believe him and his friends were banned for that very reason. Ripping people off.

Sorry to hear that man. But don’t worry, I don’t think anyone will be buying stuff from him anymore.

Yup my friend bought a “rustless” hatch from him. The thing looked rustless until we got it on a lift. Both frame rails were eatin to shit and half the screws are missing on key parts of the interior. Hes a bastard who sells POS’s claiming otherwise

Take pictures of the outside of the turbo, and in a couple pictures put something like a baseball or something most people know as an object to reference the size of the turbo by…
