Default TA-49 Need a good source.

Hey, it's my birthday. Not that it means much to you guys, but my wife caved in and told me I could buy a TA-49 turbo! Can someone point me to the best deal in town? I have an extra stocker that can be upgraded, if that helps. thanks much!

The best price I'd ever found was from Red Armstrong / Quad Air. You'll need an old turbo as core.

I have one for sale. It's got 200 miles on it. It's kinda famous.. It was on a show GNX for those 200 miles. The GNX only has 6000 miles on it and my buddy wanted to confirm the stock GNX turbo was'nt going bad so he bolted my 49 on it and took it to a few car shows. I don't even think he put 10psi thru it. So it's pretty much new. 0 in and out nor up and down shaft play. I'll take some pics if you like. I have a billet inlet bell on it. Let me know. Oh and Happy B Day!

Sounds great Jim. That's a pretty cool story. I've heard great things about the TA49. If you can give me a real fair price then I'm probably good with it. I have a buddy who has a brand new one in a box. But he won't part with it unless he gets fair money for it. It's one of those deals where I first need to get my best price on one, and then he'll decide if he wants to beat it or not. So email me your price at john.roche@delta.com and some pics if you have em handy. Thx much! I feel a good birthday coming on!!

John
