Before I go too far with the description, I have 2 people interested so far so everybody else that's interested will have to get in line but I want a guaranteed sale so that's why I'm posting this thread.
I would prefer to let everything go together since the wastegate hole on the turbine housing is ported to more or less match the same on the downpipe. I am not sure if an internal WG puck could still seal to this turbo or not.
Turbo is a TE44 that the previous owner of the car installed. He only put about 6000 miles on the car the whole time he had it (this is verified by a Carfax report), and I've only added another 7000 miles so the turbo would only have 13000 miles at most, and that's if he installed it as soon as he got the car which is doubtful. I just got done checking and there is NO shaft play. It has the small Garrett exhaust housing which is good for if you still have a stock convertor. I don't remember what the A/R number on it is, and I haven't pulled anything from the car yet so I can't see it yet.
Downpipe is a 3" T304 stainless GN1 Performance external WG DP that has been upgraded with a TiAL F38 38mm wastegate. Wastegate has the optional valve that allows the use of leaded race fuel without seizing (I think this valve comes standard on them now). I went through 2 GN1 China knockoff wastegates before I bought the TiAL (they both had pinched diaphragms; one of them had a hole but it turned out they weren't the cause of my overboost issue; hence the ported wastegate hole in the turbo. The diaphragm on the TiAL wastegate is fine though). Both of the GN1 wastegates will be included in the sale in case they're wanted for any parts (I actually have one of the GN1 springs in the TiAL wastegate right now since it's a lighter spring than the one the TiAL came with. Some of the parts are interchangeable). I'm not sure but I think the new DP I'm getting comes with a dump pipe; if that's the case I'll include my used dump pipe in the deal too. Downpipe, dump pipe, and all 3 wastegates were brand new last year.
Boost controller is a Turbonetics manual dial type (basically it's an air pressure regulator) that allows for adjustment up to 25 psi. It can be mounted in the car for on-the-fly control but I prefer to keep the hoses short so I kept it under the hood. This was also brand new last year.
Prices on this stuff when new:
$750.00 for turbo (this is just what's on the receipt; I know they're less now)
$525.00 for the downpipe/boost controller from GN1
$215.00+ for the TiAL wastegate (don't remember exactly what I paid)
$1490.00+ altogether when new. This figure did not include any shipping.
I'm willing to part with everything for $900 + shipping and Paypal fees. More details and pics to come in seperate posts as I dig this stuff up. I will probably pull the turbo this weekend and the downpipe/WG/boost controller will be pulled when my new stuff comes. Like I said I have already had some interest in this stuff so if you want get in line in case things don't work out with the other prospective buyers.
