Op Pm me and I will throw you $5 for install and tuning if you buy the turbo kit and snap a picture of yourself and the turbo kit with "faiz23" on a piece of paper. Also if you are interested just to help you out i have $50 in ebay gift cards I will offer it to you for $40. That is a combined $15 I am willing to give you if you will throw this kit on your car and do a review.

Here is a better idea....

Send me the money...I will take lots of pictures of me at the mall spending it. I think you would get more enjoyment watching me spending your money then you installing that thing

They claimed it can give a stock engine 50-100 more hp at low boost. I'm tempted to buy it but i'm not sure so just want to ask the experts in here. Do you guys think it's worth it or just another ebay rip off? Thanks
Did you even bother to use the compatibility chart?
This part is not compatible with a 2003 Infiniti G35 .

Hmm you're right. I was searching on ebay and just pasted the wrong link. This is the right link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/HIGH-...item3a69640fec

But I agree with our members. It's too good to be true..

I thought that was on 350z recently but the thread disintegrated into an argument about swapping a v8 engine in after that one blew. If it's the same thread anyway.

But yes, op- no idea about superchargers but looks like you're on a better track.
