Ls turbo motor .. kid has it for sale, $575? worth it?
doesnt come with the tranny
i guess its a 1.8 dohc non vtec? thats turbo'd
doesnt come with much for the turbo, just the turbo/motor im guessing.
$575 a steal? or a dime a dozen?
no idea what brand turbo or even if the motor is good or not .. i can only "take his word" lol until i get it apart.

if you're going to tear it apart, why not buy a engine thats smoking for cheap? LS engines can easily be purchased under 200 dollars. just have to search.
Buying a used turbo motor can be sketchy, my roommate bought a used LS after he melted a piston in his old one, only to find that it had a bad headgasket and stripped head bolt holes in the block. Just be careful
buy it. im sure it will be in good shape.... im kidding. honestly if the person selling the engine doesnt show me the engine running healthy i wouldnt pay more than 200 bucks. cause even though they might SAY its good its always a 50/50. so dont spend more then what you would pay for whatever you would salvage if it was bad. you know?
This isn't even a tech question, this is an opinion question and everyone will view things slightly differently. If you want it, buy it. If you're unsure, don't. It's that simple.

Pretty simple, dont buy if you dont want it, or buy it if you do. If you think its too good to be true, it most likely is.
