i don't think anyone here has the turbo kit from ebay, you get what you pay for.

cheap mods for the engine are never a good idea.

kit looks good. one main diff in the TSI is that it comes with AEM FIC and injectors. those alone are like $500 maybe even more. the tsi also comes with the down pipe etc. with the ebay one you may need to get an exhaust manifold i dunno im subject to correction here.
