October 23, 200718 yr What is a healthy ea82t going to cost me, intake to oil pan turbo included. Used - probably around $250 to $750 depending. The "healthy" part is debatable. I would rebuild anything used while it's out. I need one with good compression, no major leaks...something thats going to last!. Surely you jest! EA82T's are renown for their ability to leak - mostly coolant and compression. But such is the nature of 80's turbo engines in general. The EA82T's have a tendacy towards head and headgasket issues more than most though. Your best bet, if you want reliability, is to get a rebuilt engine from CCR. Unfortunately that will cost you more than a decent Legacy - like around $1200 or more. Personally I would go with the Legacy. GD
