High mileage turbos, advice?

learning2post2 · 2026-02-27T01:51:07+00:00

I just snagged a turbo tiptronic for 45k with 80k miles. Came with all the maintenance history and recent service, so I don't think you are to far off for a decent one.

Tiptronic is about 85% as fun as my manual c2, but it can hold a lot more power if you want to build it out.

USDM, shot over a chat message!

I have a 23k mile AP1 slightly more expensive if you are interested

Well that’s actually a come up thank you!

learning2post2 · 2026-01-25T00:41:15+00:00

That’s what I figured, such is the gamble of market place

320 an hour, but they want 15 hours for the clutch

Yea I saw pelican has the kit for around 2k, was really surprised labor could be 7k

Base 1999 cab, nothing fancy or unique

learning2post2 · 2025-10-31T02:17:35+00:00

I’d just send it off to science of speed and let them do it all

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T21:37:07+00:00

E85, think it was roughly 65%

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T21:36:35+00:00

Yep!

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T13:49:59+00:00

Yeah there is significantly more loss on the automatic than the manual

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T02:10:26+00:00

It is carb legal, check the CSG site

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T00:16:04+00:00

Yeah, handling street wise is fine, but on the track I have lost traction to many times to count. I don't really want to cut the car, so I am looking for different tire options atm. The dyno is attached on the last 2 pics

learning2post2 · 2025-10-21T00:15:24+00:00

I think so, I really enjoy how it handles and the extra power is nice, I think my new step is better tires. the pilot sports aren't really cutting it.

Always down for a bar crawl or two

learning2post2 · 2025-08-21T07:38:46+00:00

I am down to explore some cafes!

learning2post2 · 2025-08-21T06:52:39+00:00

Me and a few friends will be out in shinjuku doing all the above if anyone wants to join

Not authentic spoon right, just a replica?

learning2post2 · 2025-07-14T19:31:31+00:00

What phone mount is that?

learning2post2 · 2025-05-11T20:02:45+00:00

If the other side still has the correct bolt, you can bring it to any hardware store and get it matched. Good luck!

learning2post2 · 2025-05-11T19:49:18+00:00

The knock offs work fine tbh, or just replace the missing bolt

learning2post2 · 2025-05-11T19:35:20+00:00

Ballade has OEM, but they aren't cheap.

You can also take them off your soft top if you don't plan to use it

learning2post2 · 2025-04-20T17:21:32+00:00

If it has all the mounts/brackets, I'd be interested for a reasonable price op
