Most certainly a knock-off china version. That turbo, new OEM, is closer to $1400 US. Used ones can be found in decent shape for ~$150, and rebuilt for about $250. Any K04, new, used, rebuilt, all have the same inherent design flaw and will, sooner or later, lose seal integrity and begin to smoke. The symptom will appear sooner if you have a free flowing exhaust since the K04 relies on back pressure to create the seal.

MaxSpeedRods is a Chinese company with distribution points in US & UK. Looking around finds some decent stuff, some crappy stuff and much knock off stuff like fake Garret turbos often referred to as "churbos" or "china chargers".


Not for anything, but I find it interesting that you spell the name in the same odd manner as the website, as two words, when any owner knows it as a single word. How about you post the normal intro post and share some pics and info of your Speed instead of jumping to the classified section?
