I was planning on Turboing my car but after getting lots of the stuff together realized it wasn't the smartest financial road for me to be going down. I sold a few of the things I had but still have a good amount of it. I'd like to sell it all together.

Here is a list of what I've got.

- Brand spankin new Comp Turbo with V-band
(yes, I bought this from the dreaded Turbo Tom, but it's unused and looks dead sexy. Don't know the exact model number. I just know it's good for up to 320whp, it's sweet spot is right at about 300whp and it will also work with lower hp builds)
- Tial 38 mm Wastegate
- Front Mount Intercooler (don't know the dimensions, if I had to guess I'd say 36x8x2, I'll measure if you ask)
- All piping (from Turbo to IC, IC to MAF, MAF to TB. And yes it fits perfectly with this IC)
- Oil return and feed lines
- OBX Vac Block
- Oil Pan (it's pretty ugly seeing as I think it has an extra tap, but I'll throw it in anyway)


What you would need to finish a build (what I can think of at least)

- Manifold
- Downpipe
- MAF tube
- BOV (I had an eBay Type RS one that I sold, they work as good as the real ones, only $30)
- Tuning of some type
- Lots of nuts and bolts and probably some gaskets


I'd like to get $1350 for it. (plus shipping if need be)
(PS: That's with a little MNFocus discount compared to what I'm asking for it on FF)


I'd be more than willing to meet up just about anywhere in the state to sell this and may even deliver if I have the time. Any questions feel free to ask and I'll get back to you ASAP.

No you really can't. Unless you want to make your manifold yourself, make all your piping yourself, and use crap parts you can't.

To do a quality build usually runs anywhere from 3K to 5K depending on which Turbo you pick out and if you buy new or used parts. Yes you may be able to do a built for like 2K but you'll be using crap parts and a crap Turbo likely.

actually i have a mani already, came with my car.
and piping dont run too much.

I dont doubt that you have more then your asking price into yours, but id rather wait for cheaper, im in no rush. Meant no offence by that.

I know what you mean.

But trust me. I've seen lots of guys come in and say "I'm gonna do a cheap Turbo build on my Focus. I'll do it for less than 2K."

One of two things happens to every single ones of them.
1. They give up when they realize this isn't possible without crappy parts.
2. They do it. They get their Turbo build for 2K done. One week later they come back with "well, I was wrong, my engine blew up because my XXXXX broke, I shouldn't have gone with such a crap part."

The reason I have what I'm selling at the price I do is that the Turbo is brand spankin new. Add in the other stuff and this is a steal for anybody wanting to do a Turbo build.
