If you could be reasonably sure that was the only damage to the Turbo that could be fixed fairly easily and cheaply.
Nice one Matt

this is true, I could heat it up myself BUT. the turbo is at SCC and since it was UPS fault for being butterfingered goons, THEY will be paying for a new housing its getting sorted out now...garrett sent another and ups is paying for it.
im now wondering about fuel though. i was looking at some fuel pres. regulators, and was wondering which would be good... any suggestions? -------------------- QUOTE (Galcobar @ Oct 15, 2008 - 2:44 AM) You want power but have no money. That's a problem. Cheap. Reliable. Fast. Pick two. |
