Re: got a new turbo today
so i went to the yard today and checked out some ----, i found a td04 and a IHI from a old 626 and i was looking and this sundance and pulled a boost guage out of it. its a pretty cool old lookin guage and im goin to try and incorporate it into my center console. i also picked up a bov from a volvo that im goin to use on my setup. anyone interested in either of the turbos i can go and get em.

A few nuts and bolts doesn't matter they don't even have a price on them, atleast I don't think they do at the one I frequent, but when I go I ALWAYS leave with upwards of 50 bucks total.
A friend once told me a story where he swung a whole motor over the wall and stole, said he used the lift to swing it over dont know the rest.
Also he said he took 19 Jeep throttlebodies, apparently the neon guys port them and use them on their cars...
