Junk or not, turbo charger

[Toyoballs]

I stripped down a turbo truck and am parting out the engine. The turbos bearings and seals were bad allowing oil and antifreeze into the intake side of the turbo. My question is - is this turbo worth anything like a rebiuld or a core charge? Otherwise it'll end up in file 13. NO NO NO - I'm keeping all the rest of the trucks goodies...

Hey! Toyoballs,

We had a turbo that was cracked between the two turbines and Marlin dicided to have it rebuilt. So we ran it down town to a local shop and one week later Marlin was out $750-!

http://www.turboengineering.com/index.html sales a hybrid garret something turbo for I think about $800 that has less back pressure, a larger intake turbine, and a smaller exhaust a turbine, whiich equals faster spool and higher peak boost. Therefore, dont ever waste any of your hard earned money on rebuilding the stock turbo because you will regreat if for the rest of your life!

Thanks BigMike

Nope I wasn't going to get it rebiult for myself (Don't care for turbos off roading - too much extra heat, I love my L C Engineering cam and my 84 22R converted over to EFI) I was looking to sell it if it was worth anything. Looks like scrap metal to me - thanks. BTW if anyones interested (This is probabliy tabbo)I listed all the rest of my turbo stuff on eBay - block, head, and etc

Thanks again BigMike
