I guess it depends on if anyone really believes any of that story.

UP FOR AUCTION IS A SUPER RARE COMPLETE TURBO SYSTEM
That makes me want to buy it without reading the rest of it. LMAO

Actually ads like that really bug me. First off, its not a BIG turbo as the title advertises. Then, I see caps all over the place. Lastly, they advertise it as SUPER RARE in the first sentence. Not true. When one looks at the pics and sees that its hardly a top of line, or highly demanded type of setup, rarity can throw itself to the wind.

LOL

But, a sucker is born everyday so maybe this guy is a smarter man than I and will make some big bucks on it.

800 HORSEPOWER RUNNING LOW TENS AND SPINNING ALL --THE--WAY!!!
HELL YEA!!
Ha,Ha I have the same sytem and it did OK in it's day but your looking at about 400-425 hp possibly up to 450 FWHP if you stick some washers in the boost guard.And it sure wasn't 3800 bucks new ,it was a little high priced but more like $1500 at the time when you could buy an ACCELL turbo module for $850.
How would you like to be standing there letting the owner tell you all those stories?You know the type.

If someone will buy those retarded fake bov's or fake nitrous purge systems then I am sure someone will buy this. Something new I am seeing on ebay is these neon steering wheels.

The whole tag is probably 3AA1EE 90 or 10 B1. It has E wheels and the exducer housing A/R is the 90 or 10 and I understand the map is the same as a TO4B with a V-1 wheel.Two of them with some smaller housings would do the job.

I don't understand how that intake manifold works. What keeps the pressurized air from coming out the top of the manifold where the carb resides?

It's a 2 piece manifold that has a reed valve type setup.Fuel goes straight through the manifold during start up,idle and cruise but when boost comes on the plates swing shut and it closes off the top of the intake then the mixture is drawn through the turbo and blown into the bottom of the intake faster than you can say "turbo lag aint so bad on this here Martin kit and it clears the hood too"
