That don't sound right , these VF48's have a new actuator design which helps to hold boost better than previous IHI turbo's.
I've not had a problem with any that i've supplied, all made 350bhp+ easily with strong midrange

There was a lot of play in mine & it was very dirty when I received it. I had hoped that once the oil had circulated it would take up the play as I needed it in a hurry.

I removed it last week to find the blades had been fouling the housing so I've sent it back. In my case the turbo certainly hadn't done 20 miles as advertised by 2011scooby123

I just want what I paid for - a working turbo!

A "BRAND NEW, DELIVERY MILES ONLY" turbo should not have any play in the shaft and certainly shouldn't be dirty

This is what a delivery miles VF48 should look like:-




This is one which i supplied to a happy customer earlier this year and made 350+bhp on a P1.

I wish you good luck in getting your money back, but looks like you've been done mate !

Let me know if you need a real delivery miles VF48 and i can drop one up to you

I'm surprised you waited so long for him to deliver ! Maybe this joker will crawl out from under his rock now that you've done that.

It really winds me up hearing stories like this , i hope you get it sorted soon

Hi Guys,

I dont live on scoobynet or anything. About 3-4 weeks since i have been on. Yes im not the most efficent on deliveries ha ha but i've quite no idea why on earth caged r who got a turbo of someone else that was used is on this thread here.


All turbos purchased from me have been sent as described and all look exactly like pictures above.

All buyers below have received and received as described.


Keyboard warriors in my opinion only out to cause trouble as nothing better to do with calling word like "scammer" and "think you be done" and the likes.

How about people are genuine. Im on here a long time and have zero intention nor need to scam a weeks wages outta fellow genuine folk.

Below is 9 turbos sold to members on here and ALL... Everything single one arrived to them as described.

I apologise on delay postage of some but i certainly dont deserve the ****e above with likes of CAGED R and S10WRC coming on when nothing got to do with me regards CAGED R and trying to jump a lads thread for a sale S10WRC.


An apolgy from both members above with be decent.


Dave

Turbos arrived yesterday and they are as described, that part of the sale went spot on and thanks Dave, the fact that i waited 7 weeks dose not seem important but it's a long time to wait when you are expecting delivery in side a week, so no that part of the sale didn't go ok, If you get that part sorted from now on Dave you will keep your customers, anyway thanks for the turbos delighted with them

Thanx.


Yes logistics isnt my strong point i'll give you that. But honesty is. And no one here can question that so i think thats covered and dealt with.

There are x4 left only and thats that. No more available.



Here is one ITEC's turbos.

And good luck with your project. Please let me know how you get on with that.
