Provided the oil and timing belt were changed, it's easily good for another 96K miles.

 

Which is exactly why the seller left it on the car and removed the turbo since he knew the turbo was worth something.

PES no longer sells that manifold, so if you stick with it you will end up having to change everything later when you go to a different manifold for that T28. It is very hard to find them used too because others have had to buy them up because theirs cracked too. Basically this is exactly why they stopped making that kit.

 

because i need to get the car running and it has less miles than my old motor and it was cheap and all i could afford. all in all quickest cheapest fix for my car. now i know it will be dependable again. my old motor was out of the question as far as repairs go.

 

thank for all the help! im sticking with my stock turbo for now
