If you can’t get a used one, I can get you all that for 220 shipped. 38mm tial, 5 bucks extra if you want a color…i recommend JDM Gaypride Purple…but thats just me 🙂

Extra 22 bones for the flange.

THE DELTACREEP!!!

check [honda-tech.com](http://honda-tech.com) or [homemadeturbo.com](http://homemadeturbo.com) you can always find one used on there or you can buy the chinese knockoffs for under $100. and i dont care what the Tial distributors say, the cheapies work 100% perfect.

only if a moron installs the diaphragm. its not friggin rocket science. dont pinch it, it wont fail.

and $200 isnt cheap for everyone, if that was the case, there would be no market for the knockoffs.
