Need a turbo

Postby speedjunkie » Wed Jul 13, 2011 9:14

I'm looking for a good working GT35R-size turbo to use for the time being. I'm just looking to put it on for the next couple months until I deploy, so I can still drive the car and yet not burn oil.

I've confirmed that it's indeed the turbo that is bad and yet the company won't get back to me about a rebuild. I think I will be going somewhere other than A-Spec Tuning from now on.

I have their 500R-SP currently, and if someone had that and I could buy it I would be ecstatic, but I seriously doubt that will happen. So basically if someone knows of a GT35R or something similar, that would be great. Thanks!

I have a 3582r I might be able to loan out for a few weeks. Call me and we can talk about it.

I was looking to buy, but you'd loan it to me? LOL Nice. I would like to have a spare though. Is this new or used? What are the specs on it? Would you be willing to sell it? Not that I'm opposed to renting it, just asking.

Since I am not on a real computer and it sucks to type, give me a ring at 720-212-5838.

should look into the borg warner turbo's they are decently priced, rebuild-able, and make great power and spool pretty quick. I know i am looking at getting the Borg Warner 366 with a .91 ar hotside when i get the cash.

I just got a new CHRA for the turbo I have, but I'm not sure if it's working either, or if it's the engine burning oil. So I will be getting a completely new turbo kit when I get back (was already looking at something from Borg Warner for this actually).
