    I've heard the chinese turbos and wastegates etc known to have metal debris in them.

    i have been watching this thread, i would subscribe if i knew how.
    nu2dfw have you had a chance to make it to the track?
    do you know how much the turbo itself weighs?
    I think i read your motor is all stock, what do you think it would run like on a 331 with victor jr. heads?
    thanks in advance.

    Go to the top or bottom of the screen and click on the "NOTIFY" button. It's right next to "REPLY"......

    Did you by any chance take any pics of the bearings or internals of the turbo? Just curious what they looked like.

    Where's the cheapest place to get one of these? Yeah, I know the $285 they're going for on ebay right now is cheap, but since this is all about being niggardly, I figured I'd ask if anyone knows where to get them for even less. It's looking like the big block stroker turbo isn't gonna happen so a mild 351W turbo is gonna be the thing... and I don't think a mild street 351 is gonna spool the TV8102 very well.

    :(

    Check google, there are lots of links just like that one - madeinchina.com etc. I dunno if the ebay guys get theirs from an importer, or deal direct with the factory.
