    T61 Bolt on Turbo by Cx Racing

    there sure is 1 very simple disadvantage in just oil cooled turbos: the oil gets fking hot, because of the xtra stress. You dont want that. Get away from ebay turbos, in the end you´ll regret it. Longevity and Performancewise, + it can destroy your engine. put down 1k and get a Garrett :)
