Hey ya'll, I have some turbo parts that I figured I'd put up here before I put them on ebay/craigslist, so let me know if you want any!

Garrett GT28 Ball Bearing Turbo Charger with High Nickel Composite Cast Exhaust Manifold $550 shipped OBO
This turbo charger is incredibly responsive: starts boosting at about 2000 rpm and is finished by 3000, and is PERFECT for the 7afe. There's a little shaft play but probably just because the thing hasn't been oiled in a year. The turbo worked perfectly and still does, but sometimes it would burn oil upon heavy acceleration. This is because when I had it installed I used too small of an oil return line and was about 10 degrees off of straight down. I just want to be absolutely sure that the buyer knows that if he wants the longest life from the turbo that a rebuild might be a good precaution. Its a bit rusty, but just on the outside, and a quick brush up/sand down will clean it up nice.
There is about 8,000 miles on the turbo charger.
Included with the turbo is an oil feed line and big return line, steel braided coolant lines, and external wastegate set to 7 psi.
The manifold is in great condition and comes with a heat shield and bung for the manifold temperature sensor, which is not included in the setup.
The buyer should also know that in order to install this kit the front engine mount must be removed because of the way the turbo mounts. I ran my car like this for 9 months with no problems at all, but if you want you can get the rear mount reinforced or a custom from mount if you want to run much more psi. I never did this and had no problems.
This turbo HAULS ASS. I felt like I was in a rocket ship when I floored it, and that was just 7 psi. Some times I would burn my tires shifting from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd... That's how powerful this thing is on this engine. It is the perfect size in my opinion for maximal power. Check out my profile pictures to see what it looks like installed.
If you are interested in just the manifold or just the turbo let me know and maybe we can work something out.








Installed:




Koyo Aluminum Radiator $120 shipped OBO
I never installed this because I knew I wasn't going to run the psi that I would need it for, but I'm throwing it into the kit anyways. There are some bent fins, but I never installed it so to my knowledge it works fine. For manual transmission only.



Greedy Front Mount Intercooler $400 shipped.
This is a BIG intercooler and just fits with no cutting required. I painted the front black with high temp paint and it looks really good in my opinion.




Phantom Boost Gauge $30 shipped OBO
Good working condition, with a small hole drilled in the side to hold it in a guage bezel (see pictures)





If you live in the LA area you can pick up and save on shipping. Contact me with any questions!
