Default Ball Bearing T38 - Almost new

I have for sale my Ball Bearing T38. It really is like new. I fitted it and did no more than 500 miles of running around before deciding to break the car. This turbo never got mapped for full boost.

It is currently with Vince who has checked it all out and it really is like new. He is going to build it into 2wd configuration, 0.63 A/R turbine housing and with a -31 actuator on it for me. However, he could also make it 4wd configuration if required. This is a good opportunity to save yourself £300-400 over the new price.

I want £895 for this.

Well, keep it in its current configuration with the T31 External Wastegate housing and you can have it for £750.

This turbo really is practically new.

Ball bearing core spools up a fair bit quicker than a normal bearing, so basicaly it comes on boost earlier and is on full boost earlier too.

Finishing Sunday night. It's going to cost me £150 to convert that to Cossie spec, as per the auction, it NEEDS to make more money than that. Its worth more money than that.
