Hello my name is Oscar and I am new to this site, I will be adding a turbo to my 2006 Aveo and I wanted to document the install for everyone that might be interested. I will be posting pics so far I have installed a O2 bung so I can data log the current fuel curve with my LM1 wide band. My turbo kit came in today and I plan to start the install next week.
Regards

Hey guy I have gotten my turbo from maximum turbo about three weeks ago but after waiting for another three week when I purchase this kit form Maximum turbo on e-bay It came with no instruction. When I e-mailed the seller Maximum turbo about the instruction he told me that I had the wrong turbo manifold they send me a manifold for another car. I have been waiting for the manifold now for about three weeks and do not even know if have all of the correct parts because after asking for a instruction manual I have not received one. At this point I do now know what to do the seller is asking for the manifold that they send me and I am very reluctant to send it out. I think the sell should make good on the product that where selling on e-bay. The seller had ten for sell and they have nine I guess they were waiting on a bulk order but I guess I was the only sap.
Regards,
Oscar Rivera

its sort of like divine intervention that the aveo doesnt want to be boosted....the kit was a waste of money to begin with, but now its turning into a waste of your time. the best and only way to build a good turbo kit is by putting it together yourself
