Looked like an 088 ATS turbo.
Saw the air cleaner, intake snail, turbo pedistal and turbo, but I never saw any exhaust plumbing.
You need the pipes from the manifolds up to the turbo and from the turbo back down to the exhaust system.
61.99 was a great price though.

you scored!
that sounds like a very reasonable price for an ATS turbo. I don't think you can go wrong. Now go to bed early, call in sick, whatever and get the rest of those little parts that you need. Those are the ones that add up quickly! take care.

Get the valve cover and CDR, since the turbo pedistal will be going in the valley pan where the NA CDR is installed now.
Also if the valley pan grommet is any good get it to, the turbo pedistal drain is smaller than the CDR tube, so you will need to change the grommet.

Actually, the ATS 088 uses the same grommit as the CDR. Don't know why they went and complicated things with the 093 and used a custom grommit but they did.
Only problem I found is the area around there gets so hot because of the turbo that the grommit gets hard fairly quickly and starts slowly leaking. In my case it manifests itself as a smell of oil in the cab when idling in traffic. Thinking of looking for some big fat custom viton O ring instead, but who has the time for that....
But if its still good, get the grommig anyway. Always comes in handy to have a replacement.
Very glad to see that Y pipe though.
