I'm looking for a good angled flange TD04 16t, if anyone has a spare in good condition lying around.

Do you want a complete turbo? Or just the angled flange housing? I've got a low mileage turbo (135K) for $180 shipped. Pm if interested.

Thanks. But I just got one from the pick n' pull today for $95. I appreciate it though. Its going to need a rebuild due to a little in and out play, so I'm looking into that now. I appreciate the reply though.

After buying the rebuild kit(Genuine Mitsubishi kit is about $80), plus a re-balance($60-75). You're looking at about $250. You should always check the turbo before buying. In and out play definitely requires a rebuild. A little side to side is acceptable and expected.

I did indeed check the turbo before buying. They really aren't plentiful at the junkyards in my area, and I hadn't noticed that you had one for sale until I arrived back home, unfortunately. So I just went ahead and grabbed it. I knew before taking it off the car that it had slight in and out play. And I was prepared to rebuild it then. I thought it might be an interesting experience. I was only planning on getting the real deal Mitsubishi rebuild kit. And though I've not tried rebuilding a turbo myself before, I was under the impression that as long as you mark the orientation of your pieces before disassembling, and then make sure to align those marks while putting it all back together, then it should go back together just as balanced as it was before disassembly.
