so from what im reading its a evo 8 turbo cause the last #'s are 9.8t not 10.5

 

You Abosultely CANNOT get a functioning 9 turbo for $100. You can pick up a FP Green for a bit more than the 9 and the Green would hold boost better up at the top of the RPM Range, but the Evo9 turbo is still good none the less. At max spend $475. Let us know how it goes. Gl with your build.

 

i dont want to buy a fp green black pink white red or any other colors. lol they are to small for what im going to do. like i have said 5 times now. i was going to buy the 9 turbo cause i could get it for $100 now im not sure if its a 9 turbo cause of the # on the compressor housing. this is only going to be on my car for a few months till i get evrything ready for a 62mm or bigger

 

I bought my last 9 turbo with lines and everything for 100.00 plus my 8 turbo in trade, I would never pay over 300.00 for one.

 

There's no need for this thread if you can get it for $100 unless you're expecting a $75 from somewhere else!

 

That's correct, if it says its 9.8t, it's probably an 03 or 04 evo 8 turbo. The '05 8 turbos had 10.5 turbine housings like the 9. There's another set of numbers stamped onto the compressor housing, iirc, the 8's were 49378-01590, the 9's were 49378-01580

Hope that helps.

 

thanks for helping me clear this up. guess i will not be buying this. lol if anyone needs a stock 8 turbo i can get one cheap.lol

 

Found some IX turbos for sale on here. Some are already sold but just to give you an idea how much they go for.

So wait. How much power are you aiming to get out of a 10.5(9)? And you plan to get it ported?

 

ok. for the tenth time. i was only going to get this turbo cause it was cheap. buy the time summer gets here i will have a built motor with at least a 62mm turbo on it. i figured i could make a few more hp with this turbo than the 8. do you get what im trying to say?

 

Here is a Evo 9 turbo on eBay.
Starting bid is $500, buy it now set at $625.

That is way to much money for a used stock turbo, If people are dumb enough to pay that much I can get them all day for that price Lol

 

evo 9 turbo has a 10.5 housing/single flap wastegate/better compressor housing. The evo 9 is a great turbo upgrade for any evo 8. They usually sell here in the market place 400-500 bucks. I wouldn't pay a cent more for one.

Gruppe-s has them for 800 bucks brand new w/an evo 8 install kit with free shipping. That is the best price hands downs that I have seen online.

 

I Would sell my 9 10.5 turbo w/ ported mani for 550shipped
no wga

 

well if this turbo is to small for you set up why don't you roll with a 8 turbo until u get the motor build and just go to a bigger turbo u want..? why waste the extra cash on a 9 for a few months? when the motor is going to be out anyway? to be built and not driveable? unless i read the whole thread wrong :-D
