I can send you a standard turbo for about 150 posted ... but i would hope some one closer would just lend you one for 3 months so you can rebuilt that turbo ....
Also I think your careful a Chinese turbo will be fine just get it from Canadian or US vendor that has good feed back and offers a bit of a warranty .
I think people basically rubbish them so they can feel better about the vendor turbo they spent up on ...
All first hand accounts i have herd are pretty good

 

hmm.... well, i have some im looking at as a last resort so if noone can help me out then i will have to just do it.... thanks for the offer on the stock turbo but i dont think i want to go smaller.... but i will keep it in mind...

 

bolt up the turbo you want for the 3.0 and just get around with it laggy for a while why spend the money the right turbo for an engine who's days are numbered
also this way your 2.5 can go out in a blaze of glory ...

 

Lol... I was thinking about that but I can't do the lagy turbo... I have the tail of the dragon in sept.

 

Your best option is a GT3076 .63 A/R either a TiAL or a Garrett hotside.
i've been reasearching turbos for about 6 months haha.

 

why not a KKK rear housing Pauly ?

 

yeah it might be practical if its a daily driver, if he wants to get it on the road by monday i guess a KKK rear housing would just bolt on. a GT40 V-band built by rajab it just suit...

 

"it just suit" don't you mean "fully sick" pualy

 

hektik.. haha
