:p it came off from a powerstroke

OMG....really? I mean don't get me wrong, but the turbo's themselves aren't that expensive. I'd much rather buy a brand new turbo than a rusted out powerstroke turbo. Just my two cents...I wouldn't trust that thing on a lawn mower.

post up a link and show me how much a new one costs and ill tell ya how much i paid for this one

Lazerred6 04-07-2009 02:15 PM

a turbo rebuild kit ranges from 80(basic) to 200 dollars (high performance)

so if he got the turbo for cheap he is in really good shape

3.8LMustang 04-07-2009 02:19 PM

bought this turbo for 100 bucks and i know for sure its good cuz my buddies wont do me like that :D

(he would of just junked it if it wasnt no good)

Mr. Zip 04-07-2009 02:20 PM

^ +1. Good buy!

SnTBakosFinest 04-07-2009 03:42 PM

Little rust that can be polished out. The piping is whats going to be expensive probably. ;x

mustangV6_04 04-07-2009 03:57 PM

x2 the custom turbo manifold, the down pipe and intercool pipings whats gonna cost you

sand1303 04-07-2009 05:17 PM

way to go man, i was pondering pulling something off a diesel out of a junkyard myself. keep us updated

spike_africa 04-07-2009 07:59 PM

What motor did that come off of? I hope not a Ford powerstroke, thats gonna take awhile for your little 3.8 to spool. But hey get that project started!

what happened :p

jon2325 06-24-2009 09:17 AM

bad ass.. a friend of mine is working on turboing his 04 titan, he's going with a turbo similar to that, i think its a garret (t4 maybe??) off of a cummins, but its gonna be remote mount under the bed so there'll be no intercooler and he's took it somewhere to get that (iron?) pipe cut off and another stell piece brazed on to go the opposite way, it'll be running 6psi, but he has to drive 5-6 hours to get it tuned

3.8LMustang 06-24-2009 09:58 AM

Nice, that's the same BOV I have. You should have found the BOV kit that comes with the intercooler kit you got. That's what I did and I think for the whole intercooler/bov kit shipped to my door, it was like $190. Good stuff anyways.

3.8LMustang 10-19-2009 12:41 PM

thanx :D
