Well, I haven't really priced many turbo headers for our car, but I have priced them for my cavalier, and I would say that $400 is a fair price for a brand new turbo header. I wouldn't say it's a crappy deal, but wouldn't pay much more than what it's at if I was looking. Like I said, i'm not that familiar with turbo headers for the talon/eclipse, but that think does look like it would hold the turbo rather low in the engine bay rather than the normal up-top position in most cars. The picture is small, but from what I can tell, it looks like a relatively nice piece (hard to see the welds, but they look pretty good).

looks like a fucking pacesetter header, the 4-2-1 design, with just the 4 part and the bung for the 02 sensor. not even i would bid on that or even say something stupid like that guy did above. yes, not even "I" would say something that retarded.

not only do i feel bad for the person bidding on that, but i feel bad for the seller if he actually tried putting that together.
but shit, go get a autometer fuel pressure line for 40 bucks, a used 02 housing for 10 bucks, and off brand BOV for 50 bucks and try selling it. thats what he is doing, and is probably going to make money off of it. if he has a 2gnt member thinking he is getting some sweet ass deal for a header turbo manifold, think of how many other people out there are thinking the exact same shit. emoji

Does anyone find it a bit funny that he may have "accidently" cropped the picture above the turbo flange on the so called turbo manifold?

Tim, I appreciate you contacting the buyer to set him straight, but you don't have to beat on the cavalier guy so much. I agree that he expressed an uneducated opinion, but you have to dissagree in a civil manner. Funny, yes...but we can't jump on every new person that says something dumb.

Thats messed up someone would piece together something like that and call it a turbo kit and try to sell it to someone who doesnt know what they are doing. It's a good thing the buyer was contacted before he payed for that crap.

It's a good thing we have team2GNT and we look out for stuff like that and help each other out.


You guys are awesome!!! emoji


P.S. Good job on the flame tim97rs, that was hilarious.
