smidge WROTE: "subaru turbos... tons of em, cheap, lots fit the same flange" i'm thinking he wants something that's gonna bolt straight onto everything else he's already made... |

well... I'm doing a new manifold and don't care about the dump..that's gotta come out since its all welded up(told the guy I wanted so that I could put the standard header back on, but noooo) so it needs a coupling so that can happen, therefore a new dump is a possiblity... I just might get a seal/bearing kit for the gt17(its leaking oil into compressor side at idle)

these are the turbo's i'd use:
vf34 (sti turbo) s15 t28 s14 t28 r34 bb gtr a small td05 maybe of an evo.. anything china is rubbish.. trust me.. used em plenty of times on tight ass customer's cars and then they wonder why it doesn't have any usefull powerband |

fred WROTE: "can u hold for me pending ebay ..or you want $....
