Message I bought my 'Sport 500s' from them. It's not the actual Sport 500, because that's a JWT turbo. But it is the exact same thing, a factory housing that's upgraded to T25/T25 instead of the stock T22/T25. So it is structurally, visually, and mechanically the same as you would get from JWT.

I've put 6,000 miles on my turbos since I bought them from MJM. They have performed very well, not one ounce of smoke, ever. In a few words, they seem to be exactly what you'd get from JWT at half the price. Will I get what I paid for? Not yet, apparently, because they're doing wonderfully :) They are perhaps one of the few reliable, non-major turbo vendors, in my experience.

I did have to get a local shop to clock one of the turbos for me, I'm guessing because MJM hadn't done a 300zx turbo before, so they wouldn't have known how to clock them for each side.

I did a Greg Dupree downpipe/testpipe install about 300 miles ago, and when I did this I checked out the turbos. They could not have spun more easily.

Here's the best part: I paid $1000, plus a $100 core charge and like $25 shipping.

Here's a pic for anyone interested: Sport 500s on the left, stocker on the right.

I personally give them a big thumbs up.
