I got a PT88 turbo too!!

Ok guys....actually, I'm not sure if it is a "P" T88...I know it is a "T" 88 not sure about the P tho. A friend of mine owns consrtruction comopanies across the country and is also a dealer for large truck parts, etc. He has given me what he called a "T88" turbo BRAND NEW and it looks just like Guido's in his pics. Frankly, I don't know JACK SQUAT about turbo's but have plenty of experience w/ blowers, nitrous, etc. 1. How much is it worth (honestly)? 2. I know its going to be a PITA to put this beeatch in...so I pretty much want to sell it for a blower....or, will it be worth the PITA for this unit? Give me yor opinions guys...please. I think it would be bad to have a turbo car but I am not sure if the benefits will b worth it. 3. Is anyone willing to buy it? 4. Im not a dumbass so don't disrespect me and say $20 or something stupid plz...thanks

I think you should give it to me. Seriously...the gratification of actually seeing it used and even getting an occational ride in the resulting beast would FAR outstrip any monetary gain. Afterall, in the end money is a very unimportant and fleeting thing. But the smile my car would put on your face..thats permenant.

True I might be giving something up by going from 2 turbos to only one. But I would be willing to sacrafice that, just to help my fellow man find more happiness and reason to live.

heheheh jester...actually, you are just the man I'm looking for. Since we are pretty local, I want to know if you would be able to help me get this thing installed....Since you have done all sorts of the needed fabrication, etc...you know what to do, and I am in the dark. Let me know, maybee we can work a deal or something. If not, I will be selling it for a Procharger and some extra pocket cash LOL

lol..thats an interesting offer, but projects liek that are so involved, I wouldn't wanna tackle another one. If you're serious about using it I'd watch Guido and basically copy what he does. Probably make more progress alot faster tho by selling it for a blower.
