i emailed him and he said the below
They are built by Turbonetics using full Garrett internals the compressor is stage 3 cut from new, I run a 4x4 cossie and get strong boost at 3000 rpm.

its cheap thats for sure.

That's not one of those made-of-chocolate turbo wannabes is it?

I thought Turbonetics made their own turbo components? Genuine Garretts have GARRETT on the compressor housing...
