Since mine checked out on my, I need to buy a new one. I had a Garrett 2560 from FM, so something similar in size would be good..2560R or eithera 2860RS or a 2871R w/.63 or .64 exhaust.

 

I don't know if there is a thread regarding this... but what happened???

 

I made mention of it in the Ramble thread...mine died. Unknown cause. Sudden death....like a heart attack.

 

FYI, T2 flange turbos don't come in .63ar turbine. I think you mean .64 or .86.

 

Oooops...

I got confused on ATP's site as they didn't list any "only" a/r options on the t2 5-bolt but did list that the t3 is only available with .86 or .63 and assumed the t2 could be used with the .63

 

I have a GTi-R T28 for $300. Its going to need new oil seals. It works 100% and has minimal shaft play but I was noticing some blue smoke from the tailpipe after long periods of deceleration.

 

Would prefer a BB turbo that doesn't require any work before installation, sorry.

 

There is a brand new one in the for sale part for $800 Shipped

 

Saw that, seller doesn't care to post pictures because "it looks like any other new turbo". I'm sorry, but if I'm spending $800 from a private seller, I want a picture of what I'm buying...not a snide remark.

 

ill sell you a new 2860 for $400. no pics.

 

Sure, I d othat. When I put that one, I'll post one up for sale that says "Garrett ball-bearing 2560R for sale. A little shaft play $200. No pics..they all look the same".

 

No problem, I hope you find the one you are looking for soon.

 

FM has a $100 journal bearing 2560 on their deal of the day history, less the turbine and wastegate actuator which you typically can reuse off your dead turbo. i've considered calling them up and offering them 90 but i don't need another turbo.

 

PM sent.

 

Looks like I'll probably end up with a new CHRA from Garrett right now since it's the logical option for the price.
