we have some turbos at work that are about 3 foot tall. they might work pretty good on getting you to the moon.

I just thought that pic was funny. I bought that turbo online, I had no idea what the dimensions OA were. I asked my parents to put a pop can next to it and take pics when it showed up in the mail, then e-mail them to me for reference. I guess they found a really small can and tricked me at first! I was ******* pissed! I thought id really screwed up and threw a grand away on a turbo that was a little too big to go under the hood once I woke up a little bit I figured out what was going on. wasnt expecting that from the 'rents!

That's funny, what turbo is it? Last year I bought a TC76 shipping weight was 21lbs, this year I bought a ST80 spec'd it out, I was a little concerned when it shipped and the box weighed 46lbs.
