Alright, who wants it?

I'm selling my turbo and before I list it 'for sale', I want to give someone on here the first crack, and I specifically recall someone wanting it. I know one of you did, but I can't remember who. Anyway, turbo and intercooler, OEM 87 Grand National turbo, PM me.

PS: This may seem like it's in the wrong forum, but I'd rather get in touch with that person as opposed to hoping they'll stumble across the ad in the For Sale forum.

It will fit just as any other turbocharger would. Guess how I know this. Unfortunately, my kit has been sold for a while. So just the turbo, adjustable wastegate, and intercooler are left. Turbo has a polished inlet bell and comes with a conical air filter already on it.

I'm gonna do a little research and figure out what I should ask. For the time being, if you're interested, PM me.

Alright, pricing...

87 Grand National Polished Turbocharger, ported/polished w/ inlet bell, brand new air filter, and adjustable wastegate: $347.00 USD plus shipping.

Intercooler, 30x6x3 aluminum bar and plate, perfectly sized for the fourth generation F-Body, can also be used as a front mount if you cut out the license plate mount on 98+ Firebird, or if you cut out the recessed area on 93-02 Camaro: $146 USD plus shipping.

As a package, I'll sell 'em for $475 USD plus shipping.

This is the best I can do from my office....


That was prior to install. The turbo is now fully assembled with exhaust elbow attached, and wastegate installed. Also has a conical air filter (that dwarfs the turbo itself, LOL). Below the turbo, you can see the intercooler.
