What do you do? Well if there is a contest for who has the most turbos, you would win.

This shop reminds of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Instead of body parts.....it's all turbo. Mighty scary if you ask me.

The turbos are breeding down in the caves of the earth! Sweet mother of god! Run for your lives!

There's a couple more shelves I didn't even post up, yeap its Rapid Transit alright, he lets me fool around in there on my stuff, so I told him i'd give him some publicity, I'm now learning how to rebuild turbos and making custom sizes etc, most of the turbos pictured are "cores" which need rebuilt, i'll post up the shelves of the ones that work, not as many, but still at ton, its funny, they all used to be in one big pile, i'll have to see if i have a pic of that somewhere

How did so many tubos come about? well when you've been in the business for 40 years as the owner has, and you're a packrat, stuff kinda piles up, and for a while it was a pile, until he forced me and his nephew to build the sheves they now sit on....... I'll take some pics of the upstairs the weekend, the whole 3rd floor is a 280Z graveyard, multiple everythings from the 280Z's, while the 2nd floor, well-- ure just gonna have to figure that **** out, too much going on
