he got it from the guy who made that parts list you were looking at

AKA me.

the whole thing ended up costing me a pretty penny, but it turned the celica into one hell of a fun car. some of the parts on forkee's car werent even used by me because my fuel pump died causing piston failure before i could get everything to the way forkee's car is now.

as for that kit on ebay

look at the DP, looks like he lost a lot of oil while driving the car(possibily from the oil reutrn line, and who knows how bad of a leak it was or how if the turbo operated with out oil for some period of time.)

that and the center housing is rusted to all hell.
