My question is what kinda turbo is this? haha i bought the kit used for 175 with everything u see there...Also what kinda downpipe could i use? Sorry for the questions but i need these things cleared up cause the owner didn't really explain much.

If this belongs in a different section please move...Thanks in advance!

BTW pics are kinda blurry rushed it so yeah.

So you spent 175 on all that garbage and you don't know what else you need to finish your setup? Damn this kit is pretty Ghetto with a capital G. Looks like just some leftover stuff someone had or found in dumpster. I like that plastic flex piping. That should be kinda cool to see when or if it ever see's boost.

Nice mix of PVC, intake tubing, turbo etc.... Just think, what else could you put on your car for $175 that will make an extra 40-75whp. Just get some bends off JCwhitney or Ebay to redo the charge pipes and you'll be set.
Did it come w/ some 450's?

well if the turbo is in decent shape that whole mess might be worth 175, that intercooler and charge piping needs some
TLC. good luck with the setup, hope you finish it.

it looks like it came off a shadow/chrystler. look on the exhaust housing it should tell you the a/r size.
