Not to upset you, but that will not happen. Sorry. Try Memphis Equipment.

They do appear on ebay once in a while. I got one there, and have seen others.

Are you looking for the kind that whistles or just makes noise?

stateside MV show vendors sometimes have a used one, or two. Abredeen this spring I saw a tight one one sitting for the first 2 days at least, unsold and only $75. Missing the oil portt fitting... They are easy to find if you look around a bit. I got my health D on e-bay. It was it 50 or $100. got some plumbing with it. The rest of the system was easy to gather up.
A brand new one can be purchased too, though you may have to apply one of a different manufacture. It will cost a lot more($600 plus ??). Finding finding the right size compressor, turbine housing , A/R ratio is very important. That may take some research , maybe even a housing swap to dial it in. Gee I hate that line[dial it in]. Might be easier with an old one in hand, to get some specs. Getting a water cooled bearing housing might be worth the extra $50. You could config a waste gate system if your after power. An intercooler is nice too. I'm getting carried away. Anyway just another idea, If you go that route you will get a nice new part. Some of these old mil turbos need to be rebuilt. That's not real hard but can add to the cost. Sometimes it's hard to know what your getting from e-bay or take off. JimK

I was mistaken. I thought he wanted trucks, not just the turbos.
