nah...........i think i am gonna sell it.

i doubt you could get more that $150 for the set of turbos, ported wastegate or not. id say that's about the average price for a set of used stockers.

yeah... unforunetly, stock twins with any mileage on them are cheap...

the set off my car have... about 2k miles on them, only about 8 months out of warrenty right now.

you would probably want to check with a shop in your area because everywhere is going to be different. i did mine myself so i have no idea how much it would have been.
