Feeler: Like New VNT-15 with low miles
« on: April 19, 2015, 06:54:14 pm »
I am toying with the idea of installing a new Holset and ditching the sticky vane VNT. I bought a new center section from G-Pop Shop and ran it for no more then 10,000 miles and have had my fill. I paid 450ish if i am remembering right for the new center section so if anyone is interested just make an offer.

Thanks

I just had mine rebuilt or I would have. I had 350 in complete rebuild though so I don't know how much you would have wanted to lose on it

I don't plan on selling it for 50 bucks, but I don't expect to get what I paid for it. If I can get enough to offset some of the cost of the holset install I'll be happy.

I'll even throw in the -4an feed line fitting and the -10an custom drain fitting if that sweetens the deal at all? If the buyer is interested in it, i will include my attempts at a vnt linkage system based off of Libby' design. I came to the conclusion that the Giles super pump is just too smokey and a bit overkill for the VNT15 so that is why i am moving to a more capable Holset. The linkage, with clean vnt vanes, works amazingly and provides a very fast spool and is very smooth. The boost can needs a bit softer spring to function perfectly but isn't too hard to change. Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks
