That's pretty old news from back in my Honda days. The picture of the cracked compressor housing was posted on HondaTech a few years back, pretty much anyone with half a brain knows not to buy crap from them anymore. Their turbo manifolds are famous for breaking apart at the turbo flange or wastegate flange, and their cdm turbos are known to be even more worthless.

I bought only 1 part from them, and it was the o2 housing..the bolts that came with it did not fit right so I had to mod it by drilling out the holes and doing a bolt/nut combo. I also had to port the wastegate dump passage a good amount. Now having said that I have had no problems with that part since I put it on. I also have the xs power downpipe. (was on the car when I got it.) have had no problems with that either. Now I do NOT reccomend you buy anything from them that is vital like a turbo, turbo manifold etc.

SS autochrome= ROFL

I remeber ordering an intake manifold off of them(When I was 19) to put on my little HONDA SOHC VTEC turbo project and the damn IM didn't even line up properly.
