When i was having my build done with ZTuner, both of these were on backorder and i couldn't find them for sale from any retailer. Brandon emailed me and told me that he had them and he'd sell them to me. (had he not contacted me my car would probably have sat for an extra 2 months waiting on parts). I was a little hesitant about buying turbos that, although they were unused, were not brand new from a vendor. They've got about 4k miles on my car and my car runs great. So if you're buying a part from him, you can definitely count on the fact that he's selling you a legit, functional part and you should have no apprehension about dealing with Brandon.
