Right, one $20 bag of ****, coming right up.

Can you find a post in this thread where I accepted your bet? Come on Fritz, you're brighter than this. Or at least you used to be...
Let's just include the engine the chassis the wheels. Yeah whatever. I'm bright enough to know what turbos are and how much they weigh which clearly you are not.

Enough said

NOW **** OFF

Apparently not. How much does your brain weigh, Fritz? 10 oz.? 5?

NOW **** OFF

I SAID F########CK off.


I'm smart enough to know who is right about the weight of stock turbos in this thread and again you are clearly not.

I have no idea how much my brain weighs but if it does weigh 5oz I doubt you even have one.

Quick quiz...

You sell someone your non-sequential turbo assembly. Do you:

A. Include the exhaust manifold, because it's an integral part of the turbo assembly.
B. Not include the exhaust manifold, because it's no more a part of the turbo assembly than the wheels or chassis.

I have no idea how much my brain weighs
My guess is 5 oz. Enjoy your $20, Fritz.

They weighed 32 Lbs.

The subect Twins used for our non-destructive weight inspection consisted of:

Complete Turbo Assembly with 42K miles off a 1994 Auto FD.

The Components were:
An HT12 Primary and Secondary Turbo Assembly attached to the Turbo Exhaust Manifold. Oil and Water inlet and return lines were left attached as well as the WG/PC Actuators w/rods. 4 DP studs were also attached to the assembly.

The bad news,......I gained another 3 pounds.

C. I ship the solenoid rack also, along with the rear output pipe.

The question was how much the turbos weighed. When you buy new turbos, they don't come with the manifold. Fritz is right and your just changing the subject like a woman.

Watch out, Fritz. You're dangerously close to changing the subject like a woman...

Actually, Fritz just has better things to with his time than exchange blows with you. Me, on the other hand...he took our adorable little daughter with him for some Daddy time, so I have some much needed play time!
I don't see where he came close to changing the subject at all. He has parts to ship to customers today. He might be shipping some turbos. I wonder how much they weigh in the box with all the packing materials and tape and labels. Anyone care to wager a guess?
And, Jimlab, just between you and I, it doesn't make any sense to call a man a ****. First of all, he's not, obviously. But wait, he does have open access to a really sweet one... **** lover is more like it.

You have no idea just how lucky he is!

I hope you didn't think that little trailer park rub hurt. I think you've been grabbing at straws for a little while now. Maybe you should go lay down before you hurt yourself.
