Pair of T-3's (.48/.42) and a MX-6 Intercooler
I have a pair of Garrett T-3's .48/.42 that I no longer need. They were originally retrieved as spares for my old set up :

I have since rebuilt everything and changed alot, including the layout/placement and size of the turbos :

So my change can be your gain.
The turbos are in perfect working order. Little to shaft play up and down (A little is expected as it rides on oil). There is literally no RADIAL AXIS play in either (In/out) They come with Wastegates and oil returns. Both are ready to be installed (well "clocking for your app maybe necessary) as shipped.
I produced 441 hp/501 tq with these same units at 12 psi. Should be good for a bit more as I had 5 bad valves in the heads at the time the dyno was ran.
The intercooler is one from a MX-6. I had one before this one (sold it to someone from this board) and met someone who was running a "trio" of them with custom end tanks. So I went on a mission to try and get a couple more. Well no luck (all I could find was the one) and I ended up fabricating one from a huge spearco core :

Turbos $75individually
$125 for the pair
Intercooler $35(exactly what it cost me)

Thank You for chiming in Mike!!! 
I really appreciate that since everyone I have replied to concerning the parts wanted to know of some reference. I told them to search my User name and check with someone whos bought something(s) from me before and get their opinions/comments.
Sorry there has been some scamming going on lately (been away for awhile). Though I know when Beau and them got this board up and going at first, it was nothing but a bunch of DIYer's looking for boost, info/help and good deals. Sorry the rotten seeds found their way into the barrel. I really hate that, makes it bad for everyone involved.

Dude read my ad. The one I reference is the one I fabbed from a spearco core and had end tanks made to fit my car/install. I have close to $600 into it. Not to mention, it wouldn't fit in the nose of any honda/mitsu I have seen without some serious cutting! But hey, if you're interested in it, everything has a price 
I stated the one I'm selling is from a Mazda, I got it after I met a guy who made a fairly large single unit by using 3 mazda/ford cores and making his own end tanks. I couldn't find anymore so I fabbed the unit I have in the car now. I'm selling the Mazda unit as I have nothing to use it on (that is unless I decide to swap motors in the Lude and put some form of boost with it).
