To get or not to Get

There is someone that is selling a brand new power stroke
Turbo for $400

it's from the 7.3L Ford's
has 1.15 exhaust AR(divided outlet) / 1.1 front AR
would this be a good Turbo for the price for a TII? with ported motor?

it's probably way too big, don't know the other numbers but if it's for a 7.5 liter deasle it'll probably start to spool around 6000rpm... also what is the mounting flange on it? custom ford thing or stanard TO4? might not be able to get a manifold for it.

looks like a divided T4 flange
the turbo is a garrett it's not too big tho
I would say almost like a 60-1 garrett

Diesels dont turn 6,000 rpm....the majority redline somewhere in the area of 3,000 rpm..oops that is for a big 18 wheeler..but for a ford powerstroke it still isnt much higher..say 3500-4000 rpm. no flaming you or anything scott 89 t2...by the way i LOVE your TII...damn i wish i had a 89-91 TII...oh well later

I was saying on his car it would spool that high. the 7.5 would have so much more air going through at a lower rpm. his car would have to match the air going through the turbo. which wouldn't happen till a much higer rpm on a rotary.

after looking at it again it has a 1.0 front a/r
the exhaust side is bigger then the front

a T-66 is bigger then this turbo (front hosuing and wheel)
