Wow. Nice piece, obviously quality. $1265 at today's exchange rate.  :P plus shipping from UK. Yikes.

What turbo is this designed for? This would be a nice unit for a 50-degree Vanagon because of the top-mount position, lifts it up out of the mud a little.

It'll be for the GTB series turbos, which are totally awesome.

You'd be surprised how reasonable shipping can be. Ryan at Darkside sells a lot to North America so he has things pretty dialed.

Mine is vacuum. I got it from a seller on TDIclub called X-Man. It is a rebuild but comes with its VSR balance sheet and everything.
