[Spridgets] The seemingly endless Exxon Valdez Saga...

That does indeed appear to be the MG Metro turbo carb and assuming it is  the 
turbo carb and not just a regular HIF44 with a turbo dashpot it's worth a  
lot more money.  
 
The turbo carb has a bunch of special seals inside it to prevent boost  
pressuring the fuel line and stuff like that.  I don't know what else is  unique to 
that carb but I'd sell it to someone who really needs a turbo HIF44,  fit a 
regular carb in its place, and keep the change.
 
Alan Fisher has recently acquired an MG Metro turbo manifold.

I was  able to identify the carb as an FZX1435 which is a variety
of HIF44 per the  MiniMania website.
