    Default What exactly do I have here, and what should I do?
















    Just wondering what i'm looking at. All i know for certain is that this is a stock turbo off of an Eclipse. Can it work on a honda. Looking at the impellers, should i just replace them, or go and just get a whole new turbo. If i can replace, where can i get them at?

    That, and what the hell model and what not is it? or is it comparible to.

    Anybody want or need a good o2 sensor? lol for an eclipse of some year.

    I know I can make most of the parts work. I've got enough know how and ingenuity for that. I just need mostly to know about the model, and where I can get replacement parts and the likes. Thanks a lot

    Also thre is little to no free play in the bearings. its spins very smooth. The rust is just surface rust mostly. Upon repair (again if possible) i'll probbaly look for a place to glass bead it, or preferably hit with walnut shells.

    So its deffinetely not worth throwing a couple of new impellers on it? What about maybe just keeping it around, and piggy banking for a bit just to get the parts for it, and keep it as an extra. I have some pretty bad cluck with equipment lol It might be nice to have.

    What language are you speaking? Who the fuck says 'piggy bank' instead of 'save up some cash'

    Me. Turbo isnt that important to me. So i'll buy it out change that would normally get thrown in a "piggy bank". I'm sorry sir, that i havent lived out my child hood yet. Next time i'll make sure to use proper terminology, that are up to your standards...sheesh.

    Chill dude..way to flip out something incredibly stupid and trivial.

    I would buy another the worst thing is installing it and having to do it all over again. Just do it right the first-time. Plus it look like it had better days

    I wouldn't even bother trying to install that. You could polish the housing and make it a clock. Arts and crafts ftw.
