MD304 Hybrid Turbo
as supplied to previous owner from Lateral Performance.
For sale with two options:
(*Should be a turnaround of a week for TD to do it's thing)
OR
(*Should be a turnaround of a week for TD to do it's thing)
Cost over £1400 new.
No play in core, all vanes 100%!
I did just under 14000 miles with it.
btw- No pipework supplied

It's good for 350bhp/320+ lb ft on a UK spec car with supporting mods as seen on P20Spd's 2L wagon.
The turbo has done sterling service on my own car, and has proven it's ability of a number of high profile 22b.SN cars using the same turbo type (P20spd, Slooby/TimW specifically).
The turbo is now using an 18G exhaust housing.
(larger than 16G you find on OE turbos, smaller and less lag than 20G you find on BIG turbos
)
Originally when I bought this, it had a P20 housing, which sadly acquired a small crack on the wastegate penny recently.![Frown](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)
This meant the P20 housing had to be swapped back to the original spec P18 now that is done it's fighting fit and ready to play![Big Grin](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)
No core damage or play either!! (which is nice
)
I just want to be clear about the above as no doubt people will have read about my car on here/22b and I want to disclose everything so you know the turbo is spot on![Wink](https://www.scoobynet.com/images/smilies/wink.gif)
On a 2L this should give you 1 bar of boost by around 2.7k rpm and 1.25 from around 3/3.1k rpm, the delivery is much snappier on the road that you might think.
This would be a rabid beast on a 2.5 if you are more interested in a very low, and useable boost threshold than outright numbers at the top end!
You wouldnt need much boost at all with this on a 2.5 to make it FLY
With regards to the turbo in comparison to a FE TD05, the general opinion is that the TD05 is good for a little bit more than this turbo. ie over 400.
Was certainly very lively on my UK car and helped me to run a 12.7 ish 1/4mile @ ScoobyShootout last year! (IIRC- 11th place overall!)
