AZ: FS - Borg-Warner Turbocharger
Price reduced June 23. 
I'm selling some Borg-Warner (KKK) K16 turbochargers for $300.
The K16 family of turbochargers are used on a wide variety of cars (including Porsches, Bentleys, Mercedes Unimog military trucks, European FOcus RS, and Audi RS3). These turbochargers are used as upgrades on:
- VW & Audi
- twin turbo setups for cars, trucks, and sand rails
- custom turbo builds
- Increasing the output of Grandma's Crown Victoria
Obviously you could turbocharge pretty much anything you want.
According to previous builds found online each of these turbochargers will produce 300hp+ with a decent tune and have a lot of low rpm power/tq. These have some oxidation/surface rust on the outside of the exhaust side of the turbo, which is common and harmless. Every turbo car I've ever owned has had the same thing.
Remanufactured/rebuilt K16 turbochargers currently sell for $850 on ebay and to buy these from turbo retailers cost close to $1,800. I am asking $300 for these unused units. They are still in their original plastic wrapper and boxes. If you buy more than one I will cut the price down.
The photo with two turbos is to show a size comparison of a WRX TD04 turbo, which is on the left.
Located in Tucson, local pickup please. Thanks for looking!

Re: AZ: FS - Borg-Warner Turbocharger
PM'd you.
Since these were originally bought for a Mercedes 4.3 engine, I believe the default setting ranges from 24-33psi based on replacement wastegates I found for them. This is obviously easy to adjust or if you aren't comfortable doing it, a tuner can adjust it.
The exhaust housing outlet is 3 5/8" wide x 2" tall, and the turbine wheel is 44mm diameter (+/-, from what I can tell with measuring).
