I have a 2000 9-5 base and i would like to put in a turbo from the 9-5 aero.. would there be any problems with doing that?

Are you sure you want to do that? There's more to it than just swapping hardware...

no firsthand experience with that particular kit, but 90% of my car is made of parts that were ordered from GS:) And they work and are good.

Hi,

Is it possible to use 9000 turbo for 9-5?

Thanks!

Anything is possible, question is why? 9-5 turbos are cheap and plentyful.

Roto,

Actually, it's for my friend so I don't have much info. What's the price range & could you suggest some good websites?

Thanks!

www.car-part.com is basically a junkyard directory where you can pick one up used. You can also ship the bad turbo to http://www.blouchturbo.com/and have them rebuild it for around $400. Their turnaround time is pretty quick too, so the car wouldn't be down for more than a week.
