Gordon, according to Mr.Google - eeerrrrr

He said that Zage factory only makes Kando, Kinugawa, and Zage branded turbos...
Also said that Blouch is made in muuriicaaaa ...thats why they get sent to the factory there for any rebuilds or parts are shipped from there too.
Loads of info on naisoc/iwsti on turbos

Nice...time to get that cat out and bust out some flames hehe

U will be amazed how many BIG brands have their products and core components made in Taiwan and China mainland now. They would try to hide that, wouldn't they?

Car does not back fire anymore after ecu learning cycle completed. BUT I do need Norm Butler to remake a dump pipe for me, as the cat inside is blown itself loose after only 70000km

Pretty sure it's been common knowledge for a long time that blouch turbos are assembled in America, not all the components are made there. Standard.

We get the point of what you're trying to say.
Don't think they hide anything, its common knowledge that some components come from Taiwan or wherever, but that's not saying the component manufacturer made the product.

A Ferrari is assembled in Modena Italy, the leather on the seat comes from a tannery in Morocco... now common knowledge that Ferraris are made in Morocco at the tannery

Why fix the cat hehe decat fun flames at night

Blouch / CBRD are assembled in America after modifying various parts of the 'standard' turbos the various models are based off.

They are certainly not 'made' in Taiwan or China ...

Sorry for all the confusion, I meant their components r made by Zage.

I would buy Blouch or HKS if I can, but I just meant all the big brands share lots of the same thing with cheaper brands. I think this is one of the reasons we LOVE Subarus, good cars with half of the price as the luxury European ones.

Looking forward to Kinugawa ball bearing turbos any way.
