what kind of turbo did you get? and where did you get it if you don't mind my asking. i have a t3 setup and am looking to upgrade to a t3 t4 soon. i saw a 57 garrett t3/t4 on groupbuycenter for 350. which was an excellent deal for 350, but they say its not available anymore. anyhow nice setup

well my t3/t4 has blow seals (thus burning oil)...which basically means i cant get it tuned until i get my new turbo (the wideband sees the burning oil as burning fuel and makes the software think the car is running ultra rich all the time)...so my tuner had my car for abit and made a very nice basemap for it

im in the process of finding a slightly smaller turbo (prolly end up being a large t3 off an early 80's thunderbird)

AS for where i got the turbo, i got it off someone locally. the ass said it had 0 miles since rebuild, but i guess that means it comes with blown seals for free

if i were to buy a newly rebuilt t3/t4, tho i would prolly check out http://www.blaastperformance.com/ or just find an individual selling one (thats wut im looking for...mjuch cheaper)

as for pics of the outside...ill get to it, but my car is seriously a pos on the outside(well the inside too) and i dont care
