so a Friend of mine called me this morning and told me one of his buddies is selling a greddy turbo kit for 500 obo has everything but a manifold i dont know much about turbos but i wanna make my stock D16z6 faster i was doing some research and found out that greddy bolt on turbos are meant for stock motors which is what i have. how do i check if the turbo is any good so i dont get robbed for my money and what parts should i look for in the sale

Greddy's turbo kits are pretty good from what I hear. Look at the turbine and see if theres any chips/goudges in it, check for shaft play, see if theres any cracks or anything on it...

What he means by shaft play is any movement in the shaft other than it spinning; i.e. side to side, up and down, in and out.

Also make sure you have all of the following:
- Turbo
- Intercooler
- Intercooler piping
- T-bolt clamps
- Couplers
- Blow-off valve
- Wastegate
- Dump pipe
- Fuel injectors
- Resistor box (if the fuel injectors are low impedance)
- Boost gauge
- Vacuum lines
- Vacuum Ts or a Vacuum manifold
- Oil feed line
- Oil Drain line
- Drain line fitting for your oil pan
- T splitter for your oil feed line
- Downpipe
- Gaskets and bolts for everything

Yummy! That sounds like a hell of a deal!

Sounds dece.

The GReddy TD04H has a T25 inlet flange, so just buy yourself an ebay cast manifold with a T25 flange.
