why so much hate guys he is just asking for help. And btw for all you guys that say big expensive name brand parts are the way to go, I say BS. My turbo kit is not a big name(godspeedproject.com) then I added other parts on and the expensive brand name parts are the only parts that have crapped out on me. First was my AEM fuel pressure regulator. Next was my garrett turbo, the seals blew out and started burning a crazy amount of oil. Finally my synapse engineering missing link, not even sure how it broke but made a vacuum leak and my car barely run. The only name brand part that hasnt broken is my walbro fuel pump Im expecting that to go out next.

A common problem with Garrett turbos and blown seals is that no oil restrictor was installed to reduce the high oil pressure on the S2000... Points to a poor installation rather than poor part quality.

Either way, AEM and Garrett offer great warranty. Garrett will trade in any turbo center piece for a small fee.

I think "bad apples" will always exist, but at least good companies stand behind their products with a solid warranty program.

Just for the record I do have an oil restrictor installed on my turbo.... That is true about the warranty though.
