hi people if you are thinking of buying a turbo charger off ebay dont buy off bargins direct they have no info on the turbo ...that is if it has a carbon seal etc or where you can get spares and they told me they only sell turbo chargers nothing else.
beware....moridat

and????
90% of ebay sellers dont have info on there products and only sell one type of item,
there are full spec sheets on the turbos in the add and anyone who knows what theyre looking for will be able to determine the intended application
300 odd dollars for a 3582 turbo with 12 months warranty sounds good to me, if it lasts 12 months your laughin if not it gets replaced
$1.00 a day for turbo goodness whats not to like
pay 1700 for a garret thats not rebuildable anyway

the reason i contacted the seller for infomation on spares and wether or not the turbo had a carbon seal was that i intended to do a suck through system for which a carbon seal is neccesary now i am none the wiser and still do not know if the turbo has a carbon seal or if i can get one if any one knows how to tell please let me know...thanks i personally think that if you are going to sell a product you should have this information available as some of us do not have a lot of money and work hard to get it as to enjoy our intersts thanks again.

Try these guys, They're VW focussed, but they sell carbon sealed turbos new and will know their product. http://www.lowbugget.com/Schwitzer_Turbo.html

or just have your T25 turbo carbon sealed by a turbo mob.

no offence intended,
so far i have used 4 of these turbos and each one is still spinning after 3+ years
carbon sealed turbos can b found easy enough with a search
but i wouldnt think a importer on ebay would know anything about the turbo thats not on the tech sheet
cheers

no offence taken but new item,s should come with a spec sheet all the best
