wastegate was something like $510 USD, shipping from USA $50, managed to get it without paying taxes
turbo something around $1750 USD with shipping from Australia, taxes/customs $550 USD

now need to make manifold, downpipe, water/oil lines here locally...

but first need to get car started with that E11, will know more in the morning...

Damm, hIGGI, very nice.

I like how you actually put parts in your car and use them, unlike Ian who just buys stuff and has them sit around his house
