Anyone done biz with eBay Vendor "Autodynasty"?

[desertsnake1991]

Maybe this is the wrong thread place- Wondering if anyone has bought anything from them? They had some things in there that just looked almost too good to be true. Or, is aggressive low prices really making our hobby more affordable? They have T3/T4 Ball bearing Turbos in there for 299$, and Oil Catch can assemblies for like 25$! These are VERY good prices! Not to speak of huge Alu Intercoolers for just 70-90 Dollars!!! I know its all pampering to the Rice crowd, but lots of that stuff works for our cars as well!!

When someone touts a "T3" Turbo for sale, does that mean it has the flange layout that I need for my T3 RT Daytona?? Need to get all my terminolgy straight!

No we don't have the standard T-3 flang on our TIII cars. It can be made to work, or so I've heard.

Its junk, pure and simple. Ask yourself this, how can they sell you a BB turbo for $299 when the real deal is $1500? YOu can try it but I guarantee it won't last long.

When they say T3, that could be the comp side or the mounting flange, which if you have a TIII, is correct.

Yes, you do, you TIII folk have the T3 or Ford style mounting flange.

all t3 16 valve cars have the standard t3 flange on them

Thank you for the correction. That will make my life easyer when I upgrade.

The one thing that has me looking at these Turrbos closer before buying is that I don't see a water line for the Turbo...I would prefer mine water cooled as well, or it will indeed have a shorter life. (Prices there are right though!)

i've never heard of a dual ballbearing turbo that is just oil cooled.
the water NEEDS to cool down a dbb turbos, because of its oil restriction!

so those turbo's sold probably are just thrust bearing!

[desertsnake1991]

Look at the ads on the Internet Antichrist (eBay) and see how they are! They all say "Ball bearing turbos" and are available in many "calibres" and sizes!

don't deal with auto dynasty, i tried to buy a neon short shifter from them, and they said that they were made wrong (i thought that was testing was for). I constantly had to keep e-mailing them to see what was going on, about 2 months after i sent money for the shifter, i got my money back, but don't deal with them.

[Austrian Dodge]

yeah thats what the ad says...

believe me you can't get a dbb turbo for that price, they're in the 1500usd range!

i'm sure you get a turbo, but wait till the turbine wheel of that turbo will "convert" your stage I housing to a stage III ;)
