well today we had a car in work where we had to put a new engine in it but the new engine had a turbo and the old engine didnt and the owner didnt want the turbo..... so the turbo came home with me and here it is in my garage.

1380 turbo anyone???

the turbo is now for sale ill take 40 for it which i think is pretty decent reason for sale is because i have a eaton 45 supercharger now..........

[minivanman]

[jameswildcooper]

[BabyBek]

Dam, that was £10 cheaper than mine.... but I don't think mine's been used! When's it going in?

[minivanman]

[jameswildcooper]

I'm not gonna just walk in and say to the manager, "one of your finest Bini superchargers please, and make it snappy". Go talk to the lads in the repair bays
