Dear Mark

i am Takey from Taiwan
i searched some information about MHI turbocharger TE06H turbo and got your mail....
http://www.ifsja.org/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=030182

Recently we found many new MHI TE06H -24V turbochargers
but no one knows waht its application for...
their Part No is
49185-01550...about 350 turbos...

i am not sure if you know it,
but that is a chance for me to know that,
that is why i disturbed and mailed you ....sorry..

if you know its application or something else ,i would be very thankful ....

Thanks and regards

Takey Chen

Update - his response -

************
Thank for your information and help.
those turbos are still in Japan and waiting buyer...
now we have to make sure what application for or any market for modifing...
that is why i sent this mail to you for help.

Acturally i am not sure if we will buy them, but if we do, i think we will
sell them as "whole sale"....
i mean at least 50 turbos...unit price would be around USD290...(ps all are
about 480 turbos in seller warehouse)
if i get any news or some pictures , i will let you know.

Thanks again

Regards

Takey

$290 isn't bad for a new TE06H, but I sure don't want to buy 50 to get that price. Group buy? Starting to sound a little fishy though - first 350, and now 480 turbos?

walk away, just walk away and no one gets hurt !

lol........ :eek:

That's a long way to go to try to get a refund!

[cschneider]

Hi Mark, would you please send a cashier's check so that we guarantee a turbo for you... you know how the story goes. If it walks like a duck...

[G. Gearloose]

Ask him if they are the model that are made to accept the 10" johnson push-rod adapter, you will only buy them if they have that option.
See what he sez...

Yeah - and that 'Takey(it on the)Chen' is rather suspicious, also.

Have him post pictures of the 'estimated' lot, with a few closeups of 4 or 5 posed in several views - compressor inlet, outlet, turbine inlet, outlet, 3/4, top, etc.

I'd be interested if done so.

Saw this on ebay and remembered this post maybe related?

Yeah, with Jeep listed in the applications, I would think so! That's alot more than $290 though.
