                          people are so naive
                          precision turbos use Garrett CHRAs
                          as do alot of the best turbo companies out there: HKS, Air research, even bullseye on some models and many more not to mention oem Nissan, toyota, mitsu etc
                          1. garrett make some of the best turbos on the planet
                          2. They offer excellent tech support and service to their dealers (try calling hks about turbo problems)
                          3. They have an extremely wide variety of various turbo configurations


                          and Dan they still do have a good rep and uphold it

                                      The guy has been on there for a year and only has 25 post ... Makes you think . And he says he still works for them but bashes them on the net would get him fired ..

                                              True ... just seems to strange .

                                              They are the largest manufacture in the world so they will have the biggest return . The are also one of the largest Government contractors . I think they have a employee that got but hurt . Wait till the company sues his ass for slander ... LOL . Honeywell has owned Garret for sometime now it is nothing new and Honeywell is a international company .


                                              He provided no facts to back up anything he said


                                              Microsoft Windows suck too , but people still buy Just because a product is manufactured in China does not mean it is the same quality of what we call "Chinese turbos"
