What's a huge ass Garrett Diesel turbo worth?
 
There is a local store that sells the most random ----. I walked in there yesterday and there's a brand new huge-ass Garrett turbo for $300.

Looks like it's either for an 18 wheeler truck or some type of earth moving equipment.

I wrote down the part # but lost it so I'll have to go by there again. I know there's a huge lack of info here, but ballpark what do you think I could get for this thing if I were to buy and sell it?

They also had an 18 wheeler radiator NIB for $200. The thing was big enough to make a couch out of and looked like it weighs 100-200lb.

If it's brand new, I would say that is an awsome price.

remember just cuz its huge doesnt mean ----

Turbos follow the rule of supply and demand. If nobody wants it its worth nothing. :-\

Thats true about the supply and demand. Im just poor and always looking for ways to get extra cash.

Oh yeah, the place also had 3 Honda dizzy's NIB for $116 each. Not sure what they went to but look like A6 dizzy's. They could theoretically be remans not sure.

They also have some super-high-quality generic wiring harnesses. Only they just have ones with female ends and no matching male ends. I could do so much with them bitches. :(

take the part # to a deisil truck shop and see if they can identify it and tell you how much u can get for the core... i got a like 97-99 chev van turbo at a junkyard, and i got 1300 just for the blown core, i was like wow, i just wanted to rebuild it, but they needed one, and i got it for like 100, so iwas down.. maybe somthin like that might happen, check the #'s and it might be worth quite a bit, or run it :-\

Ya, but my brother in law who is a diesel mechanic has shown me some of the prices for the frieghtliner turbos. That ain't nowhere near 300.00 The thing is that only a Truck shop would want that and good luck getting them to buy it from a kid off the street.
