Hi, up for sale is this Callaway Turbo Kit off my MK1 Caddy. This came with the truck from the original owner. I had the turbo rebuilt and it's only seen synthetic oil (Schaffers). It is in great condition with no shaft play. You will need the oil feed line and the intake and exhaust gaskets. Asking $475 plus shipping. Let me know if you have any questions. My cell is 1-773-592-1515.
Thanks for looking,
Jeff B.
Update:9-18-11
TO MAKE THIS EVEN MORE TEMPTING, I WILL INCLUDE A SET OF GTD INJECTORS. SUPER LOW MILEAGE (<5K) CLEANED AND POP TESTED.
AND, I WILL EAT THE SHIPPING COSTS IN THE US (Outside the US, lets talk)

This is what it would look like assembled on a head. I've also included an adapter to start the intercooler plumbing and a custom intake for the air cleaner. The exhaust down pipe and flange is also included, but the pipe should used as a guide to build a 3" downpipe.

thats a really interesting set up for a diesel.. i knew they made one.. just never relized they used a gasser intake with a modded throttle body for diesel..

its not a modded throttle body. it says callaway turbo on it.. its a special cast adapter piece..
-
awesome kit for the price IMHO ...if I had an NA I'd be all over this !!!!
-
i knew it was not a modded throttle body.. guess i could have called it a adapter.. but point is.. neet set up with odd parts i can say ive never seen pics of..
-
It looks like you would have to flip the turbo to make that work on a Mk2.
Cool kit though 8)
-
Flipping and clocking the turbo housing is easy on this turbo. Here's some pics on how I plumed the IC on the Caddy. I used an IC from a Starion. It fits, I used tubing from a Saab Turbo and Volvo Turbo at the junk yard. Here are some pics of what I did.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome! I would buy this in a heartbeat if I still had my Rabbit.
-
how was the spool/performance with this setup?
-
that turbo looks HUGE, i bet its worse than a stock T3, performance wise..
i bet it pulls like hell up top tho..
wish i had the money, i would buy the kit just to hang it on my wall..
(maybe run it if i had a car worthy of it)
-
The pics on the work bench I gotta blame on the camera. A little bit wide angle, kinda like when you hold the fish you just caught up to the camera. :o
I'll try to get the specs posted. It really didn't spool that bad with a 2.5 in down pipe. 3 would be more free flowing.

its still bigger than the stock T3.. those are big turbos, ive seen one in person before.. just the turbo, not the whole kit..

How would this setup work on a gasser?
-
Here are the numbers on the housings. On the cold side the wheel is 43.5 mm with an A/R of 60. On the hot side it's 55 mm and the A/R is .4
I would think it would work fine on a gasser. If I understand correctly, there is more BTU output in diesel (at the explosion, more hot gas} but the gasser will be able to turn higher RPM, so the gasser output would still be more than adequate.
R.O.R-2.0 Do you know the specs of the stock T3 for comparison?

i dont remember the EXACT specs of the T3, but hearing the specs on the roto, i am almost positive the T3 is smaller..
if my rabbit sells, and this kit hasnt, im going to purchase it to hang on my wall until i have a car worthy of it :)
-
if i had the coin id add it to the toaster... it needs big turbo
yes that will work on a gasser.. most we see are on gassers.. the throttle body adapter is the main differance.. gas = throttle body, then the turbo feed (air filter for us) would go to the cis flap.. which i think is the callaway casted pipe..
intercooler was a stage 2 type of thing..
his pic of it on head is stage 1.. mk1 rabbit/jetta/cabby/caddy.. so stage 1 wise i think he has all the pieces for a mk1... gas or diesel..
p.s. callaway got its start making diesel kits.. then moved into gassers.. then vetts..
add some intercooler piping and stage 2.. :D

I want to buy a MegaSqirt for the Miata so I'm trying to make this more tempting.
-
How? By dropping the price? A bunch?
-
Read the update I put in capital letters.
-
Still a long way from "EXTRA TEMPTING". What are "GTD" injectors, BTW?

How can you asses the temptingness when you admit you don't even know what is being sold?
Lets see,
better than stock intake
better than stock exhaust
better than stock rebuilt turbo
with plumbing
Less than $500
Do you prefer rusty hoods and stretched tires to running well or something?
GTD = GTI, but diesel.
-
I'm blown away no one has snapped this up.... this would be so sweet on my cousins restored caddy!!...(just wish it were mine) :)
-
i agree... such a "complete" kit.. die hard diesel person needs to own..
-
:o :o
no wastegate?
how impossible will that be to find?
-
like my old BAE kit that also lacked wastegate.. diesels did not have enough rpm to make enough boost for one.. think of how big this turbine is.. think of diesel rpm.. the BAE one only makes around 7psi.. BUT pushes you in the seat unlike a stock td does due to its size.. its old antique turbo stuff here..
why waste gate required anyways.. add in one of them silly sneeze valves and that will drop boost pressure.. lots of people build them..
if waste gate needed.. ok.. add the thing into the manifold in some way.. audi 5k turbo has a remote one that bolted to the manifold.. lots of them in junkyards..
id still add this to my tdi-m in the toaster.. may have some lag.. but i bet would rip the tires free in upper rpm range no issue.. just i has no money..
-
A guy from Oregon bought the kit. He's putting it on a 1.9 NA. With the extra 300cc of size it should be a good fit. Let's hope he decides to join the forum.
Thanks to everyone for their input and help.
Cheers,
