i have and 88 toyota supra turbo

i have a question about ebay. is the stuff on there a good deal.
for example

http://cgi.ebay.ca/86-92-94-SUPRA-INTERCOOLER-TURBO-PIPING-HKS-BOV-306_W0QQitemZ8063451818QQcategoryZ33742QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

is that a good deal or would i be dumb to by it.

there is also like performance chip that say +43 hp for only $27.00 us on ebay. are these scams or is it jsut a good deal???

thanks travis

All those "performance chips" do is increase your fuel/air mixture, making you burn more gas, but also giving a slight increase in power. I doubt it would be 43+ HP though....

gaaaaaayyy, dont buy it its a waste of money. ebay can be good but you have to look at all the details.

what would u recommend for a performance shop where i can get a good deal?

i look at speed tech and they want like 400 for a bov alone. thats y i am skechy on both. i dont want to have to spend 400 for a bov but i also was skechy with the $200 intercooler.

where does a guy go to get "good performance for a "good" price

thanks

From what I know about cars + ebay, I wouldnt buy any performance part, any Chip etc. from there. 90% is junk.

buddy of mine got a chip off ebay for 60$ for his 98 sunfire. actually made a pretty big difference. What exactly it did i am not sure. But i am not sure what brand he got or anything, so not everything off ebay is BS. Do your research, if it sounds too good to be true.. Guess what?...
