This kidd i knowww is trying to sell me a turbo for my d16 for 500$ the turbo comes with a blow off valve intercooler and everything else, he says the wastegate is in good condition and everything else is this a good price and will this be a good modification for my d16 or should i swap?

 

make sure there is no play in the turbo shaft, buy it, and have some fun. what kind is it anyway

 

that depends... do you love your SOHC or not. if not then swap. i think its a good price if everything is there and in good condition

If that checks out, then go for it.

Does it come with an FMU?
If not, look into one, its an essential part to help get the right fuel input once all is said and done

Or you could just use bigger injectors and run crome/neptune.

But sure, i would at least check to see if the turbo is of a decent manufacturer. If it's ebay Ish then just buy a new ebay one for $500.

That is an essential part of making your car run like crap and wash rings/crack injectors over time.


What parts does it include and what brand? 500 bucks usually means not exactly top notch which is fine but some things you should just completely stay away from.
