Empty turbo CAT wanted

Cleaned up the garage and found some parts you want to sell? Or are you looking for that one part? You can advertise or request just about anything that has to do with the Volvo 480 in here: brochures, towing-hooks, antenna's, etc etc...

Anyone know of any turbo's sat in a breakers yard at all?

I really am desperate for an empty CAT.

The Cat at home hasn't got much brains but I don't think it would like being attached to my exhaust!!!

You want a pass through pipe? I'm sure one could be made. I think Dragon had one made. Hope this helps.

Hi Martin,

Yeah for £110 when the empty CAT will do the same job for about a tenner....that's my thinking. Also vibrates a bit which helps you feel what the engine is doing a bit more....I'm a bit odd like this, I can't drive without at least one window open to hear what's going on.

Thanks for the info. though.

Aye, I might give powerflow a try then.

About the window....I turn the heating up!

Hi Stu,

I wasn't sure if you still had it or if it had been sent off to the breakers yet.

No worries...I wouldn't get under the car in this weather if not necessary!!

Just let me know when it's available.

Cheers

John
