Default Anyone used XS Power Turbos?

A guy that uses the same shop I do has a set of T61 XS Power T4 flange turbos for sale. I was interested in them and want to get some feed back on that brand before I make a decision.

Xs power is a brand from ebay. They can be found for cheap when it comes to turbos. I have heard some people having problems with them leaking oil into the turbin housing,but have also heard good results with a proper oil restrictor. It could be a toss up. How much does he want and what are the specs?

He wants to trade me a plate nitrous kit I have for both turbos. He wanted $700 cash for them and I offered the possible trade. What is the oil restrictor you mention? Part of the turbo itself or something additional?

i bought one off ebay for about $240 shipped... before i got the Turbonetics 76mm

some of the housing were having problems spliting and coming apart.... some have problems and some work. Could end up being a waste... could turn out good (for only awhile i imagine, lol)

The oil restrictor is a small peice thet you put in your oil feed so you don't have the turbo seeing full oil pressure. Its one of those things that some people recommend putting on anywayz and some do not. 700 for both is what he paid for them.
