HELP with ebay turbo.

[the forsaken]

does anyone have experence with the GT28 turbo's that are sold on ebay? i found some that cost like $400 to $500? i want to buy one but i don't know if they are good. i'm a bit short of cash so if i'm buying something, i can't go wast my money on crap stuff that won't last.

Plaese help if you can. anything you know is usefull. THX

why not just save an extra couple hundred and buy a real garrett with a warranty?

[the forsaken]

how much would that cost me???

I've seen new GT28Rs go for $650-$750 new from retailers. Do a Google search.

on topic: buy a real garrett and you wont have to buy it twice, you will end up saving money. just my .02

Definatly try to get something w/ a warrenty as the others have stated. You'll need to purchase motor mounts, injectors, Z32 MAF, and a Walbro fuel pump (this feels like another thread). Car looks great! It's that time of the month for some, so don't take the hateful remarks too seriously. Best of luck!

we had a customer buy one we installed it, it lasted no more then 500miles with out even getting into boost the majority of time, he drove out to VA beach from ohio and made it about 4 hours before it went out. he was two hours or more from his destination. and had to spend part of his two week vacation searching for a fix.

do not cheap out on your turbo... if you want a cheap turbo get a garrett out of the junk yard from a factory turbo car, rock that till it blows smoke and toss it or have it rebuilt for 125-200$.

also ive been hearing rumors of price increases comming on garrett turbos from two seprate suppliers im a distributor for. cost of materials are climbing fast. so might want to get one soon

If you know how to use the rebuild kit, that the best bet. Shop in my town that works on Turbo deisels wanted $400.00 to rebuild a T25. They say it's all factory specs. I imagine some of that was in labor, but as you can guess, I didn't go for it. I bought another new turbo. From metal to gas, everything is getting rare. Soon we'll be paying $10.00 for a box of Rice Crispies! Revoluiton? Good Luck!
