The (to me) really annoying part of the Chinese stuff is that some of it is just fine and some is absolute trash (poor machining, bad metallugry, etc) and I know of no reliable way to tell the stuff apart by looking at the ad or even holding the part in your hand (though sometimes you can see crappy machine work). So I've taken to counting on good vendors that I can fall back on if the stuff is truly crap. Tim's Turbos does my turbos for Mutt the Race Truck and I trust Tim to sell me the good stuff - so far so good.
