I can get a 16G turbo, wastegate, exhaust manifold, side mount intercooler, and some piping from a 1G eclipse for $300. Will all of this work in a 2G 420A, or can I use parts of it and get the other parts. If so, what other parts will I need.
This will be just a start if this will work, I will upgrade the turbo and wastegate and all the other goodies later.
Thanks for the input.

it will work if you get a few custom made parts such as an exhaust manifold,down pipes, intake pipes, along with all the fuel parts and vacuum lines, oil lines, etc, etc, etc. If you don't know much about turbos and the 2gnt then you are better off getting a kit made for our cars, the other way (custom made kit) will give you a lot of problems.

the only thing you'll be able to use is the intercooler and the 16G (of course it comes with a wastegate its internal) but $300 is a damn good price for a 16G especially when all the other stuff is included. so i would check out the turbo, its probably blown or broken because they cost about $800 new for just the turbo itself

the turbo is in working condition... it's on the guys car at the moment. the only reason he's selling it is because he's buying a t3/t4 turbo from someone he knows for $300. My main question was would it be benifitial to me to get this and then get the other parts made, or possibly get them from Hahn or Star. I'm not trying to go cheap in no way at all, I just want what's best for the money. If this will work, then great, but if not, then I'll get a kit. Just looking for as much info as possible.
Thanks
