Hey... one of my friends has a T3 Turbo that he wants to sell me for $115. It's fully rebuild/reconditioned... It's just the Turbo though, no piping etc. Is this a good price? I'm seriously thinking about picking this up from him, because it's the Turbo that SF uses in their kit, and i could probably save some money from them on the kit... Please let me know what you think!

i seriously think i'm gonna jump on this one... if nothing else, i can probably have some shop custom build the piping for me, and just buy the SF manifold and an intercooler and blowoff valve

Just because its a T3 doesn't mean its the one thats used in the SF kit. What trim is it? Also why would you want to get the Turbo polished when you can't even see it once installed. Richard
