So what are the project plans?

Single Turbo
1/2 BP
Full BP

Do you need emissions where you live?
The body looks like it might clean up pretty nice, so not a lot of cosmetic work.

If you need a hand I think I owe you some wrench turning.

isn't a full bridge kind of counter productive for a turbo unless you're consistantly revving >9k?

9k consistantly, No problem.

I would take it, but I wouldnt have the money for a rebuild. Besides my car has problems of it's own. I'm actually glad to see that you are keeping it.

Nice, Good job WEEE.

Do you need money or something? Why not just keep it and fix it slowly. I bet it will be hard to sell now that it runs and puts a big smile on your face.
