this is what i do. i just toss in used turbos. as long as they run decient. they are cheap. i crank up the boost to the limit. when the turbo brakes, i just toss in another used one. the last turbo i broke, the turbine axel broke. thats when i upgraded to a new greddy td06. it was too big. i ended up building my car up around the turbo. i make the same boost, and im $2,500 poorer for doing so. that why i pulled the td06 and went back to stock. i still make 14 psi.

it cost to much to convert a NA to a turbo. even if you got the moter, trans, ecu, wireharness. you still need the IC, the pipes,... i know all that stuff is listed in the add, but its alot of labor. a mk3 moter/trans remove& replace is much easier than you think.

Well I talked to the guy and he is anxious to get rid of a complete, running '87 turbo (automatic) in good mechanical shape. And you were right about the turbo, it needs a $400 rebuild. No thanks.

I might be able to take that cherry '87 off his hands and save the wrenching for my Tundra! I like yours a lot, if you were anywhere on the west coast, I'd be ready make you an offer. Me thinks shipping to the mainland might be cost prohibitive... Out of curiosity what are you looking to get for your ride when you do sell? *** Edit *** whoops just re-read your earlier post. $2k sounds reasonable.

Thanks,
