    Hi just wondering if anyone can tell me if npower turbos are any good.
    I know they are half the price but are they just as good?

    Obviously they're not because they're not tried and tested... There was a thread on these a while ago, nobody with real experience. Nobody willing to be the test pig either.

    There are places you can skimp out and get away with it, and others you can't... guess which category turbochargers falls into.

    Now Now...you can skimp out with turbos, as long as your prepared to pull the motor out again if your choice proves to be incorrect. Warranty doesn't cover labour, just the product.

    Npower are great to deal with but I would not buy a (Chinese) turbo from them, too much of a risk.

    Nik, upgrade ur injectors and get the car nistuned before anything else.

    Push ur stockies to bout 16psi and u'll have a shitload more power. Will keep u happy for a while anyways. :)
