That turbo Sir is a cheap Charlie Chang one and won't last you long at all and will soon become a £250 door stop.

Have you tried a toyosport turbo before? some of these charlie changs look really poorly made but some look pretty good,iv'e had a few things that are toyosport before and iv'e been really happy with the quality,iv'e not tried a turbocharger tho,iv'e see a few video's on you tube of people buying the cheapest ebay turbo's they can find and there's some that say there lasting well,also was speaking to a mate that say he bought one for a laugh to see how long it would take to fail and it's still going and it been a few years now! there is another thing you can do with them,buy a garrett core on it's own which is cheaper and fit the housing off the copy part onto it.

Most of them have been proven on another forum I'm on to be very low quality and as you say replacing the core is the only way to know it's going to last.
