Hey Punch,
I have a stock 3S elbow and cat, which would be what an aftermarket downpipe would replace. They dont call it a downpipe because the only real piping that goes out of the turbo is a short 90 degree bend from the turbo, and then its the cat all the way to where it connects to the midpipe. If you're interested in it I'll get some pictures up.

[Punch]

I'm interested show me pics

[Doge]

ok...pics will be up later today...going to the shop to take pictures

[Punch]

CT26is this your's ???

[Doge]

NO...but i went to look at that turbo and i was the one that told him it was bad (as he said in the auction)...that thing is absolutely shot. It has worse shaft play than mine did. That thing is worth no more than 50 dollars because a new shaft is very likely... seriously the thing wobbles. That kid is just trying to rip someone off... I actually had a technician come with me to make sure i didn't buy something i didnt want and he said it was super bad. So dont even think about buying it unless you are planning on rebuilding...but if you want to do that go to mr2oc.net and get a shot one for $25 bucks!

[Doge]

by the way... forgot my digital yesterday so today i'll remember to bring it and get those pictures up for you.

[Punch]

good looking out !

[Punch]

do you have a direct link for mr2oc.net the shot turbo

[Doge]

cant find the one guy that had two shot turbo's for $25 but here a few others that might sell for under $100

this guy will probably sell it cheap since he doesn't need it anyways... its all a parts swap. Offer like $50 and see what he says. He might say you're insane if its in good condition...but its always better to lowball than to offer too much

try this guy...he has two extras so he might let one fly your way for cheap too. Just keep looking on there...they pop up all the time. But dont expect anything if you hope for one in working order...if they say its used and it has some shaft play then that means it can be just barely used or it can be shot to hell....you can't till till you've spent your money on it and cant get it back...so just be carefull man. Just look at that ebay auction...whoever buys that is going to get jewed hard core...they dont even see it coming because the kid didnt say anything about how badly shot it is.

[Punch]

how much do you want for the elbow???

[Doge]

Do you want the elbow and the cat or just the elbow?

[Punch]

elbow and the cat, how much is shipping to 33023???

[Punch]

[Punch]

[fastgt]

look at my fs thread might see something you like

[Doge]

Sorry Punch,
The shop that helped with my swap wants to keep it around to use it for all the "not so legal" 3s guys that hang out there... that way when they have to go get smogged they can just swap out my elbow and cat instead of trying to think of a way to pass. Again I'm sorry for getting your hopes up. I deserve a bi tch slap!

[Punch]

It's all good, Igot guy with nothin but toyota parts
I talked to you 1st, so it's ok I will find one!

[Punch]
