turbos are a different kettle of fish - a chinese turbo may well be balanced as good as any (it's only a balancing machine, which can be bought by anyone) but the tolerances can mean you won't get *as much* power as a genuine unit.
Again, proof of this is found on Some turbos a competitor tried to sell for Rovers - same basic core as the Hybrid I sold, but used chinese CHRA's. His was 20Bhp down compared to mine (160 vs 180bhp)
Buuuut... it's also luck of the draw tbh. To make something cheap, often means Quality control isn't as stringent
