You are correct. It was alot more than just a spark plug. Come to find out, there was ANOTHER person who owned the turbo before ricky. So, Dean sold the turbo to someone, that person sold it to ricky and then ricky sold it to me. Only one person used the turbo though... and that was Dean. I just found that out when Aaron (the guy who told me about the turbo) responded to my post on TurboMustangs.com

New info.. I was told that the turbo was a ceremic ball bearing turbo. Come to find out, its not. Looks like I was screwed in more than one way. Now I am considering legal action if this does not get situated.
