I bought this turbo with 8k miles on it from a fellow Zilvian who didn't happen to mention that it was blown (Seals blown on the compressor side). This is the only thing stopping me from driving my car. It was fucked up 6 months ago by a drunk driver. So I am forced to eat the loss and just sell this thing. I've taken in to a rebuild shop to find out how much and how long it would take. Unfortunately for me its will take them 4 weeks to get it back to me (local shop). They said a regular master rebuild would be $250 and and a master rebuild with upgrades (360 thrust bearing, polishing and etc) would be around $550. I know there is the option of buying a rebuild kit and doing it yourself but I personally rather have a shop do so. So instead of waiting 4 weeks or doing it myself, I just ordered another turbo. In addition I can include the HKS wastegate too. It is brand new and was ordered from FRsport. I still have the reciept for it.
It is very well known in the 240 world and is a great alternative to a T28.
"The FP-Big28 uses modified T25 compressor and turbine housings, which means this turbo could trick its mamma into thinking it was a T25. Don't let that cute little shell fool you, however, because on the inside it's 100% pure evil. We carefully selected a compressor and turbine combination that provide massive flow capabilities and very little back pressure. Doesn't sound like a big deal? Did we mention it makes full boost in just a hair over 3000rpm, and holds solid all the way to redline? Now we're cooking with gas. The compressor and turbine are the largest T28 available with 37lb/min flow rate, that is about 550cfm.
These units are done only on an exchange basis. We do not have core turbos on hand to sell these outright. You will need to send your old turbo in with a note explaining that you want the FPBig28 mods performed. Turnaround is 2-3 days in most cases, sometimes faster. Dont worry if your old turbo is really messed up, all that gets reused are the compressor and turbine housings and wastegate actuator. The entire center section is replaced with new parts, including our severe duty thrust bearing system."

I'm asking $350 shipped. Its a great deal and you could have a new turbo (after rebuild) for less than any other T28 turbo. PM me any questions. And I'm more than willing to answer and clarify things. Unlike SOME MEMBERS I'll actually be honest and straight forward.
