    FS: Rebuilt AiResearch Turbo

    I got this turbo back when I was planning on turboing but I have since changed my mind and have been selling all of my turbo parts. This is one of the last few items I have to sell.

    This is a rebuilt AiResearch Turbo with an AR rating of.82 there is no shaft play, it spins very freely. I will answer any questions that I can. I am asking $140 shipped

      Looks almost like my garrett t3...but mines actually a garrett


      Thats a pretty good deal on the turbo though.


      BTW what other parts do you have left besides that? anything?!?!

        I'd have to check but the last I looked I still have a FPR and intercooler (blackstone)

          AiResearch is Garrett, it's just before the names changed, really nice turbo.

                yep, I just wanted to make sure so that any potential buyer would know that it is the same thing, so it is an awesome turbo for 140 bucks.

                BMW2ner - was it a full rebuild???? they normally run $400 for the rebuild.

                  According to the guy I bought it from it was completly rebuilt, and I would trust my life to that guy. Are you saying I should ask more?

                    no i was just curious. 400 was if someone does it for you. you can rebuild a turbo your self for pretty cheap. atpturbo.com is everyones friend :D

                    do you know the A/R? by chance. is it a super 60 or a .48 might help out some people to know which one it is.

                        mines still on the shelf...It should spool pretty good. I am hoping that I will have full boost at about 3k. I think the t3 is gonna be a great size for the m42. Someone should pick this thing up.

                          Hello all, this is my first post here. I am not a BWM owner...I just work on them when they are busted. lol. I am in need of a turbo and I think this will fit the bill. I need to know good friend, where did this come from? It looks to be from a ford T-bird. If the exhaust side says .48 on it we can talk. PM me.
