I built my business on charging below list

and I gladly still would if I could make enough money to stay open doing it. Times have changed, and if availability increases and my margins get restored back to what they were I'll gladly go back to charging below list for parts.

I looked back at that guys previous posts as he did mine. He bought a turbo from someone that was incorrect and had to send it back, then bought a rebuilt GT17 on Ebay. I sold my CHRA's between $300-400 and did pretty well with them. Moved around 80 of them total. List price on a new unit from SAAB (PN55560913, GT17 for B205L) is $1006.55. I'd say I was tiny bit cheaper.

And trolling this site? I think you'll find three or four posts of me offering parts to people versus the hundreds of giving free advice.

And here's some still valid free advice, stay away from the cheap Chinese crap. Ask people about $150 the Direct Ignition cassettes.
