I wonder what reaction I'd get if I tried to take an armload of greasy T3's through customs?

You only need to say to customs those turbos are for repair .

Obviously you didn't want to go with the car full of greassy turbos Turbos are around $25 - $30 each with no warranty, but who cares! I get mine for a sweet $10 with no warranty.

I speak a little differently than most people. I get wierd reactions when scrounging for broken ---- at junkyards that aren't familiar with me. I think I'd end up getting the rubber glove customs treatment.

Beautiful low budget setup. Nothing to regret there =)

I like how you used hose for the piping, is that radiator hose or?

dude... you can make some serious bank if you shipped turbos to the states. I could make it worth your time if you bought more T3's for 10 bucks.
