i found a "dodge neon" turbo manifold with a very brand new and nice looking Mitsubishi-branded t04e turbo stuck on it at a pawn shop this weekend. It was going for $149. :eek: i think it's too cheap to pass on, even if i'm not planning on turboing anything any time soon, especially cos i can sell the manifold for at least 100.


so, i think i'm going to do it. the questions is: what the shit would i use this with to get it working in my car? i haven't thought of turboing the sohc engine in my car ever, but i was planning on a significant amount of work in the near future. what turbos are compatible as far as bolting it to a turbo manifold goes? would something like this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7909443829&category=33742&sspagename=WDVW) work?

sorry if i sound like a :newbie: on this...but i figured someone would be able to give me a quick, straight answer. :eek3d:

I'd say buy it and sell it on ebay. Then use the money for whatever you want for your car. Like a turbo that is matched for your car. If you could give the A/R and the Trim and stuff it would help with figuring out if it's good for your car or not.

eitherway you should look into lookin a low milege dohc and turbo that - much more rewarding.
