I have a k26/6 but it could probably use a new compressor wheel.

I don't need something fancy dancy in working condition.

Probably just going to be a "decorative" part.

Aslong as it looks complete, thats fine.

Got any pics of it?

Yea I'll see if I can take some and post later (gotta' go out for a bit now). The compressor vanes are a bit chewed up (something went through 'em) but other than that it's okay. It actually works but it makes a horrible "police siren" noise and is almost certainly out-of-balance now so I wouldn't run it without a rebuild or it'll probably self-destruct in not too long a time.

I'll take some pics though if you want - it beats just having another paperweight sitting in the garage.

Actually, I could really use one also. If anyone has a trashed one for like $20 or so, let me know. It would need to have decent housings I guess, the rest doesn't matter.

I don't "hate" too many people, and I can assure you that you haven't earned that status, so don't flatter yourself. You're certainly not that important to me.

And for the record, I mine all the time.

Nine_Five_One...

Can you post a pic? and possibly price?

Thanks!

Looking to spend right around 25-30 bucks for a non-working unit. If it is capable of being put in a car and working, then I don't want it, as someone may need it worse then I. I want a turbo that is non-operating.

Thanks again...

::Edit::

nvm Nine_Five_One, I just read your email. Little more then what I'm willing to pay, and it works.

i thought you never go over 55 old man. dont you know those things just make you drive faster. you dont want the temptation to drive fast because if tempted you may take your 951 and turn into a 9_5_1.
