So I kinda accidentally bought a new turbo, I bid on this one an ebay and I didn't think it was going to go for this little but it did so....

I'm not sure if I will even use it, so if anyone wants it I will sell it for what I paid....

Jake wants it. Any idea what size the 5-bolt flange is? (i didnt see it listed)

That was quick, glad I could hook him up, the total cost to me was $271.50,
I dunno which flange it has but I doubt it is the weird one like the other turbo.
Probably the normal t3 style. Oh, do you think I could keep the wastegate actuator?

wheres the extra $9 come from?

Im sure it wont be an issue though, I rounded up to $265 when I talked to him which isnt much different than 271.50.

im sure keeping the wastage actuator wont be an issue since he has an external. I'll likely see him tonight (maybe you will too if you come over) and we can work out the nitty gritty.


Think you can get it before waterfest?

I'll come out to the GTG, the extra $9 is cause I made him take paypal since I didn't want to send a check or money order. He said he was going to ship it thurs, and he is in NY so I might get it by Friday or Monday.

Nice, im sure Jake will be psyched, he was looking at buying brand new which is like 2-3 times the cost. He wanted a smaller turbo (super 60'sih) to spool sooner, but I bet this one will spool alot faster than the busted ass ebay one he has now :P

See ya tonight d00d!
