Finding Parts in Canada HELP!!!

I live in Hamilton Ontario. I can't find a wrecked turbo if my life depened on it. I went to 3 scrap yards alone today and not a single turbo car in the lot. When you do find a turbo car they are completely picked over!!!!!

Does anyone know where to grab some decent ---- to work with

Anywhere in the Golden horseshoe, hell I'll drive down to NY if there is something decent. I want a T3 ~.5 A/R. Please someone help!!!!!!!!

Re:Finding Parts in Canada HELP!!!

hit up london and windsor... most of those hick towns got some decent ----, except when the hicks try and rip you off telling you that an IHI turbo off an old MX6 is gonna be $400... they can go lick a dick... but there was a cool yard in london where i found a few MX6 and saab 900 intercoolers for like $100 except they tried to ---- me over with the turbo... i think the yard was called Shaw wreckers... they had a huge organized lot.

also try checking out aadco auto wreckers in brampton, they got lots of turbo goodies there too...

just use www.car-part.com and search for parts in canada only... 99% of the stuff in in ontario. just do a search on a turbo specific vehicle like audi 5000s saab 900/9000, talons, mx6s, 300zxs, you get the idea.
