jamestopdog Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Ok trying to collate a few bits over the next few months for a turbo conversion.I sort of know what I need, but turbo wise, i dont want some cheap chinese rubbish, so anyone tell me a good make/model to start searching for on ebay (secondhand) Not going for some crazy power thing so dont need anything to over the top, i would be quite happy with a extra 40bhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VTEye Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Race tech use a TD04 turbo in their d series kits. http://race-tech.net/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=37 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a t25 hybrid on my sx, it spooled up much quicker than a t25, but it runs out of puff at 120+Basiccaly the smaller the turbo, the faster it gets 'on boost'. The newer bmws mave variable vain turbos. So at low rpms they are a small turbo, and a high rpms they are a big turbo.Yeah Audi do a Bi-Turbo diesel with different sized units, supposed to give mega MPG's and decent driving experience, not that it matters when you've already 4ucked off on VTEC though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which one? The idea is good though! Weren't Lancia the first to use it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKH25 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Iirc the T28 is a very usable turbo, spools up pretty quickly and runs a decent amount of boost. I ran a hybrid T2/25 on my R5, spooled from 1500rpm and ran 18-22psi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
