rotfl +1

[G8GT721]

i wish i could waste 1.1k and buy this just to laugh at when it comes in the mail or cry when its the exact same turbos that came in my APS kit

[vic2186]

looks like the APS KIT!!!<<joking<<

[jdeserio]

I wonder who bought this..lol sucker

[Crazy Paul]

Nice catch, Paul.
"One of these things is not like the other..."

Nope that wasn't my point.

The kit is in 2" or 2.5" piping.
It also only has a single turbo.
Look at the pic below, there are no new exhaust manifolds, exhaust Y pieces or exhaust piping to allow you to fit this to a V8. A V8 has 2x exhaust manifolds.

On top of that your V8 G8 has approx 4" OD intake piping. There are no 2.5" to 4" upsize couplings shown.

If the single turbo and piping are based around 2 to 2.5 inches I doubt the kit has been sized correctly to provide the flowrate required to provide the boost figures quoted for a 6.0 V8.

It's a kit suitable for a 1.6 Civic or weedwacker but not a 6.0 V8.

Edit...his ad didn't say G8-GT, just G8. All the points above still apply to a V6 G8.

As Jerseymike68 would say...

"thanks for these information"

:)

I think I'm going to email someone that's bought one of these to see if they had it installed.

[GTeve]

Wow... the endless sales that take place everyday on Ebay. Incredible.

Sure. It's not meant for the application it's advertised for.
