Re: is this a bargain turbo?
Dont even think about it!
Ebay unbranded turbo you are asking for trouble,not even worth considering imo.
Also way to big for an uno imo,infact i have got a simular spec but a genuine garrett turbo to go on my gtir.

The seller's feedback for previously sold turbos looks quite good. I'd still feel very wary about contemplating a 'universal' turbo. Just don't know how well it's been put together, nor how long it will last...

Re: is this a bargain turbo?
ok cheers guys, i'm very cautious buying from ebay anyway & was sort of expecting these replies anyway but thought i'd ask before spending loads of money on my engine then fitting this and it causing loads of damage.
mark i've been registered on that site for a few years but i still keep getting messages telling me
