    mmmm garret goodness!

    Recently picked up a garret for my new engine

    came off a volvo 240 only cost $60, and if i ever need a turbo manifold for a volvo 240 series i gots one!

    has NO shaftplay :-D

    it is a little on the "small" side but it should spool nice and quick and should be good for 10-12 psi all day long

    before







    after a little bit of elbow grease and a rag

    Hit that with some brake parts cleaner and all that grime will fall right off. Just make sure to cover the inlets on the turbo, so the grime dosent go inside the turbo. Good find BTW

    That turbo will certainly not push to the limit of forged pistons, but with a really good tune you could run some nice boost on stock internals.
