Garrett turbo
My friend wants to sell me his Garrett turbo. I'm thinking about buying it, but i was just wondering if it would work well with my car (2004 Rx-8).

which Garett turbo?
the "will it work" is dependant on a LOT of info which you haven't provided.

It's a T304 Garrett turbo. My friend is selling it to me for $100 because he got it for like $500 for his S2000 from one of his frineds, but he sold that car and got a G35 and wants to sell it. If my engine blows i should have enough to get a new eninge or at least buy a junker until i get it fixed. Should i buy it or should i just get one that is made just for the Rx-8?

dude FI FTMFW!
Jump on it quick! You can also swap in RX7 twin turbos from the FD RX7 model. Here is the thread on that one!

Its not as simple as just buying a turbo and sticking it under your hood somewhere.
Heres a link to my custom turbo build:

This will give you a rough idea of what you need to buy and have to make(or have made) to turbo your car. Keep in mind in the cost sheet of mine that I did all of the metal work and fabrication myself. If you have to pay someone to do this for you..it will cost far far more.
