Cheap big snails
 
I was looking around on egay and found a guy that sell diesel parts and turbo's. He's got alot of larger snails and holsets dirt cheap. I mean under 100 for mostly all his turbo's if not all. He lists the conditions and if there's any problems or damage to them. I don't know this dude personally or even online. Just found it looking around and just speading the wealth if someone is looking for a big fatty snail for dirt cheap.

HIs feed back is quite good with 99.7% and only 2 negatives from like 800 transactions. Johnny I say ditch those chrysler T3's and get these instead

bro, old diesel turbos like that arent such a great idea for our honda 4 bangers i mean look at the size of that exhaust housing, its got to be close to a 1.0 or 1.15 A/R housing, which would do a whole lot of nothing on our cars

also look at the weight.............100lbs for 2 turbos???? my 35R weighs 24.4 pounds in its package from Garret,


why spend 250 on a used diesel turbo that may not work when you could spend about 350-450 and get a decent turbo that will work well and last a good while.

Hey I'm not saying go and buy them but there's other people on here with bigger toys that can spool it and have some fun with that stuff. Plus There's a couple of people here that like the holset stuff and a couple of those didn't look to unbearably bigger for you 4 banger guys. Just trying to help.

The big exhaust housings just arent spool happy. For the d series crowd you can block one side of the twin dividers to help with spool. Thats what Jeffy did on his Dohc zc with the 1.00 housing.
