So I know my car has a blown turbo seal

And I've been looking on eBay for repair kits and found that they can range from $120 to $40 .. Just want to know if anyone has tried any of em good or bad ? Cheap or expensive? How long has it lasted ?

Or can link me to one that's good

I bought a kando one and rebuilt my 14b and it's seems fine, haven't run the turbo yet but the parts looked quality and I'm confident it will be fine once running

There is nothing wrong with their gear. I have used their stuff a few times and can say that there is nothing wrong with it.

Will have dyno sheet to prove soon too.

How much time do you spend in a parking lot with your performance car? If you do a lot of parking lot driving, and hang out in parking lots, chances are you are a ricer, go home and read import tuner. If you’re complaining about noise you should not be modifying your car. You should also consider no longer being a man, please hand in your genitals at the door.

Personally, I prefer the genuine MMC kits. The thrust collars and brass plate are of better quality and in some cases I've had the large thrust collar not quite fit with the oil shield fully (cured by resorting to a used, genuine oil shield). Plus in the MMC kits you get a new heat shield and through bolt for the v-band clamp.
