Possibly buying a turbo kit, need advice
I found this on my local CL, and am very tempted to purchase it. I've been doing some research, and it seems to be a good starting point, with fairly decent products.
price: $500 or trade I have a partial turbo kit for 1.6 engine Greddy manifold, no cracks. Greddy downpipe, no cracks. Greddy td04hl 15g, blown, will come with a rebuild kit, new gaskets, and a new actuator that opens up at 7-8 psi. Greddy emanage blue, no harness, no tuning software or cable. Greddy type rs bov, the one with the blue horn. Supra 7mge 305cc injectors. Just wanted some opinion as to whether or not this is a good deal to start off with, and why/why not. thanks |
sounds like a horrible deal.
greddy kit is mediocre starting point at best, and this one is incomplete, and with a blown turbo. fail |
trade for it most definitely............
for a bag of your poop |
seems like alot of work/time for a basic kit with missing pieces
|
I wouldn't bother. For the same money you can build your own manifold and get an SR20 T25 that will outspool and outflow the GReddy unit.

I did a crappy job (relatively) rebuilding my t25 and it works amazingly and is leak free, if it's priced right I wouldn't mind starting with a blown turbo. At least that way you'd know the condition of it.
But that being said, I'd pay a little more or wait for a deal on a artech/begi/FM setup with a t25, I have $230 into mine, $155 if you don't include the busted stud. Ive had both setups and prefer the layout of a side mount. Fyi, I'd probably he suggesting the greddy kit if it came with a better downpipe. |
