Used turbo kit. Should I get this?
 

I just got an awsome deal on a used greddy kit, just wanted to ask what people though about a used kit, it looks in really good condition, but I'm a little worried if it's worth it to buy used, it's also a hell of a deal, I got all this for 3300$

Rx8 Greddy turbo kit w/intercooler and Welded on HKS SSQ Bov
Greddy Profec E-01 Boost Controller
Hks Turbo Timer
Greddy Oil Pan
Greddy Oil Catch Can

I also already have the Cobb Accessport for tuning, so I'll probibly sell the ultimate that comes with the kit. here is the condition of the kit...

should be fine, install it! I bought mine used too. That's the best way to go. If the turbo is crap, just upgrade with MM's GT3071R.

I'd get it... if the turbo is bad... then just upgrade.

Edit: rex you beat me by a second!!!

hahaha

seems like a decent deal..inside that downpipe looks like that car was running pretty lean

^^ Do you say that cause it's pretty clean?

look at how white the inside of the downpipe is on picture 7...theres alot of goodies that came with that kit

that profec E-01 is delicious.... :Drooling_

That's what I meant, if it weren't so dirty on the outside, it looks like it has never been used.

used greddy kit should have cost $1500-2000.

oil pan new is $300. Boost controllers are in the 300-500 range new.

I would have passed.

yeah, price is a bit high for it, mine was 2500 with boost controller, HKS ignition amp, greddy oil pan, greddy catch can, hks ssqv bov.....ended up selling the boost controller because I already had one, HKS ignition, and emanage ultimate...so really it cost about 2000

drop the price on it then take it

i got my stock greddy kit basically still brand new for only $1500.

yeah price is way up there.. surprised the first few posts were OK with the price.

used greddy kits are just under $2k and with the other mods you got no more than $2700..

hello all I don't mean to thread jack but I"m lookin for a good used GReddy turbo kit but they are are to find? Where are you looking to find these good deals I've found a few on EBAY but I'm not ready to buy prob until Spring (tax return) again sorry to thread jack

i can get new for 300 more

didn't think it was a great price, but he said he got an awesome deal, therefore implying he purchased it....
I wasn't going to flame him for the price, since he seemed so happy with it himself....
