21863, Turbo Help
Posted by tacoman123, May-11-02 07:45 AM
I found some turbos at a lockal junkyard...
They were pulled from Merkur's and Ford Probes...
They were like 100-200 a piece, they aren't intercooled...
Do you think these would be good for my car...
How much psi could I run from these?

Also..
I found a T25, almost new (used), for 450...
Would that be a good deal?

Thanks

NO that's a horrible deal if you are doing a custom setup. I got a new T3 for $300. BTW intercooled or not has nothing to do w/ the actual turbo. The same turbo can be used in an intercooled car or a non intercooled car.

So would it still be a good deal getting those turbos from those Probes or Merkurs for 100-200 a piece?
Thanks

you may wanna do some research on here if you arent sure on what size turbo to pick for a setup. for the most part you can make any turbo work on any car, you just have to have the manifold with a flange to fit it. hope i dont come across as an ass, just dont want ya to buy a turbo for nothing.
