has anyone ever really done this? If you really build yourself a turbo from junk... make sure you video cap the project and the initial test... I'd like to see the result of that...

you can go get a t25 turbo from an eclipse, hf exhaust manifold, various piping, IC, aftermarket wastegate, various oil/vaccuum lines..it can be done fairly cheap but you should do some research so you know what youre doing. visit that site.

yes...when your poor and you want a turbo this is how its done. generally the turbos come of of DSM's, i knowq you can build a twin turbo set-up for aroun maybe a little more than a grand from junkyard parts. its just you gotta inspect all parts thouroughly
