    Nice hairdryer Simon. Guy has low feedback though, I hope the turbo works OK.

    you need to modify your exhaust manifold flange to T25 style but this turbo should work very well in your application!!

    Shouldn't a Garrett turbo have the Garrett name cast into the housing?

    Ok, well I asked him for more pics. Looking closely, you guys are right. I guess my monitors suck. Once again, TM comes to the rescue. Maybe I can get it for alot cheaper if the comp wheel is buggered?

    Not to mention I told you to be hesitant on that turbo because they guy couldnt even describe what it really was. There is no such thing as a GT25/40R.... this turbo according to the part number is a GT2876R. It is smaller then a GT3071R! Garrett says at the very most it will make 450crank hp.

    Yes, I know. I need a turbo so for the price, it will do me fine IF the compressor wheel isn't damaged. If it is, all bets are off.

    If its too small, oh well. It will get me by for this year or next. At this point, I don't care anymore, I just want a running van. Summer is ticking away.

    Re: Look what turbo I just bought!

    I wouldn't buy that turbo at all.

    Looks like one of the no brand turbo...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/T3-T4...13823792QQrdZ1


    I made it a policy that if the seller can't provide me a GOOD high quality (640x480 or higher) picture, I won't buy.

    I have seen those turbo's but the comp housing looks totally different. I will wait to hear from him, if he won't send me better pics of the comp wheel, I will cancel the deal.

    GT2876R = GT2540R

    It looks to me as if the turbo in the auction already has the T3 turbine housing option.
