    Can't speak for ISX but I have one on my volvo that is almost 3 yrs old. I'd definitely buy from them again. I bought the whole unit

    You can find them on line at ebay and such. Chinese knock offs with a broad coverage. I read good and bad reports, then bought local. I do not know if failures were caused from incorrect installation or quality problems. Prices are very good. Google JM turbo.

    OK Thanks. Turbo Exchange in Kanapolis NC is top notch from what I have heard from several people.

    Mine is an 07 volvo motor. I went with JM due to not having a core charge. They have the same warranty that the OEM does
