Buying a used turbo kit is a bad idea, but if its what you want to do then I'm happy to direct you in the right direction. I think he still has it for sale, given that used turbo kits are a very limited market. Someone local to me might be selling one too. I'll ask.

oh well, its usually a spur of the moment type thing. Give the car a few more months and you'll start seeing more. Just look at the tc1, the market is flooded with used crap.

How about you purchase our tC2 kit for $4,450.00 and call it a day. Use the extra $400.00 to purchase the gauges you want.

Like others have said, the route you are going down to save money could easily turn into a way more expensive kit.
