How's it going guys?
I wanted to make a thread where Customers who bought this kit can put down there feedbacks, what kit they got and other additional stuff. I was searching around the forum and i was noticing a lot of same questions being asked over and over and hopefully this thread will reduce that.



So for those that have bought the XSPOWER kit, please post up in this format.
**Please tell us your car model, year & engine type**

1. Which turbo kit did you purchase for you car ? (Please include the turbo model)
2. Other additional stuff added to the kit (ex. IC Piping, Boost controller...)
3. Did you have any problems with this kit during installation or after installing it ? (Yes or no answer, if yes inform us)
4. Post your feedback (positive/negative) on the kit you purchased and installed.

1. T57 kit NA-T
2. Custom IC piping, PTE IC, Greddy Profec-B, HKS TT, custom midpipe
3. Throttle body clearance issues. You CANNOT just bolt this kit on. You WILL have to figure out how to clear the TB without melting your silicone IC clamp. Also, one of the oil lines not sure if it's feed or return again WILL sit on your manifold NOT GOOD.
4. Other than above, kit was what I was expecting for the cost of it. Most of the designs faults would be easy to fix when the kit is being developed. Like the saying goes, you get what you pay for. If you have the money to get a better kit, get the better kit.

I don't have pics of the problems with the kit, but I will try to get pics of it finished and show you guys what had to be done to make the kit work right.

I havent seen any documented problems with the clearance issues you describe. In fact, I've seen several manifolds on cars and never had issues touching the silicone coupler.

Did you run a spacer on the turbo to clock it or something?

Get some pics up like you said; I'm interested.

There's no need to clock it on the 57 kit. Nothing was done to the manifold or turbo to possibly make it sit any higher than it should out of the box. We wound up shortening the TB neck and welding a new pipe onto the TB angled a bit more upward. Like I said, I'll get pics of it when it's done and when I either get a camera or borrow one. But the TB was sitting on the turbo, and even if a coupler could've been put on it wouldn't have laste long at all.
