Are stock Evo 8 turbos worth anything?
I still have the stock turbo from my 03 Evo. I sold the car a while back, but if I remember correctly, the hot side is smaller than the later Evos, right? Does that make my turbo basically worthless, or do people still buy them?

I mean it can't hurt to try and sell it. Someone will probably buy it because they blew theirs and don't have the funds to upgrade. Or own a different chassis that's NA that they want to turbocharge.

You can probably get around $250 for it depending on the condition.

If the hotside is in good shape with no stripped threads or cracks in the hotside then it can be worth something. A good 9.8 or 10.5 is hard to come by.

That's awesome! I like when people make the camshaft lamps too.

Thanks guys.. I guess I'll post it up on the for sale forums and see if anyone wants it.

Worth maybe 100 bucks. I went through a few Evo 8 turbos due to various reasons

I'd say 150 shipped sounds fair
