For sale is a rebuilt S5 turbo and manifold. Turbo has about 30k miles on it and almost no shaft play, very very little but I didnt want to say none. Missing one stud (I was desperate for one but it can be bought at autozone I'm told or at the dealer). Extreme ported wastegate (done myself). Still pulled super strong when on the car. Manifold has a small crack near the exhaust port. Asking $250 picked up or plus shipping. Prefer to sell locally. I'm selling because I just installed my hybrid. Pictures upon request.

Love your username btw

 

OK, manifold...is that just the exhaust manifold or are we tlaking the intake one as well? I'd like to see the turbo in person. I'm from the bay area, as you can see. PM me please.

Hey,

I'm in SF. I'll post pix of everything tonight when I get home. I was specifically talking about the exhaust manifold.

PS Enjoy your trip.

 

How bad is the crack? Is it repairable? I'm interested also, but would like to know the extent of the crack, and how I would go about fixing it, thanks.

 

I'll let the pictures speak for themselves but the cracks are not that bad in my opinion. They're actually pretty common on most of the stock turbo manifolds I've seen. I guess you could fix them by welding up the cracks and then grinding them down. I might be able to try and fix them if I can use my buddys welding machine.

 

post some pics

 

Sorry just got home. Here's the pix. Sorry I couldnt get clearer pix of the cracks but you get the point.

 

How many psi were you running at? Can we expect that this turbo should not smoke?

 

Turbo doesnt smoke at all. I was running 10psi with a boost controller. Other people can vouch for me if you need references.

 

Where'd all the interested buyers go???

 

Im heading to the bay area next weekend. I will give ya $50 without the manifold.

 

Wacko! Vegas is NOT the bay area!

 

isnt reno in bay area?

 

i can vouch for stan, turbo did not smoke at all.

eric.

 

Stans a good honest guy, free bump

 

thanks for the free bump and feedback guys.

Still for sale.

 

Guess everyone disappeared.

 

Still have it? I am looking for one, but would like the manifold to be in good shape. If you could help me locate someone who can fix it (weld) I would be interested. Also, what's the lowest you will go, I don't have much money, sorry.

 

$250 picked up is already a pretty fair deal in my opinion. Everyone else sells high mileage s5 turbos and manifolds for around $250 shipped. I'll see if I can get the manifold welded and then I'll spend time grind it down. I'll try and get it fixed but $225 is the lowest I'll go. Any lower and I'll just keep it myself. I've driven it with no problems. It's pretty hard to find one uncracked since it's fairly common that they have a tendency to crack.

 

Ok, if you can have it welded, $225 sounds good, let me know, thanks a bunch!
