What Do?

 

So, they want you to pay $100 more for a turbo?

I'd be mighty cautious of them.

 

Buy from one of the HUNDREDS of other sellers that stocks these chinachargers

 

nah, they would be sending the more expensive one for the same price I paid for the other one.

 

I like the first one better (the one they no longer have).

I should put Lars' old 2871 emotor churbo in a classified ad on here.

 

journal bearings---no
ball bearings--yes

 

Do it.
