2 hybrid turbos for sale.

both turbo dynamics

1 x MD 195 P20 exhaust housing, largest compressor wheel (garrett) that they can fit into standard compressor housing. Turbo dynamics rated to 1.8 bar and 440bhp. The same turbo (not the actual one though) that Craig H used on his famous 0-60 and 0-100 runs. £800

1 x BT 270 P18 exhaust housing. Can show dyno plot of this turbo on a UK car (with link and fmic) producing 343bhp @ 1.2 bar. yet due to smaller exhaust housing, still produces 1 bar of boost by about 3000rpm. Very drivable, excellent step up from standard turbo on UK car. £800

Both turbos will be checked by TD before sale.

Strictly speaking, both will probably need an uprated actuator, of which alas, I have but one which I will sell for £100

sorry, forgot to add email notification.

Adam,

Would either of these fit a MY96 UK with the 90 degree inlet path (currently running TD05)

If so, could it be used with the standard ECU of would I have to change it?

Cheers

I would have thought it would be a lot of aggrovation changing it to a straight entry, which is what these turbos are.

Not entirely sure on the ecu front. Ultimately I would think it is not a good idea with a standard ecu. Both of these things flow much much more than a TD04, and I cant see the standard ecu coping at all when changing up to something like this.

You might get away with it on cars that came as standard with vf23 and vf 22s such as 22bs, sti 3s and version 4 and 5 wrxs.

Hi !

I've had the APS stage 1 kit fitted to my car(MY00), this includes a unichip and the APS-boost controller.
Will these turbos fit my configuration, with a Unichip retune ofcourse?

Adam M

I they should work absolutely fine so long as you get a retune.

The bt270 works great on uk cars.

Can comment quite objectively on the MD195s.

They suffer from turbo lag - no doubt about that -but when they're goin

If used with a properly sorted Scoob , the performance is blinding

An acquired taste, but once used, hard to return to something else.

I must apologise as I appear to have mislead people.

The BT270 turbo on the uk car with fmic and link actualy made 344bhp on the rollers. 343bhp had stuck in my head because it was the figure that bobs rawles car had achieved so was a bit of a landmark.

Adam, am I right in thinking these are both straight entry? If I'm going down the FMIC route, would one of these suit?
[/dunce hat]

Disco,

if you want to put a straight exit turbo on, you would be far better off with a new style manifold which has greater room underneath it to route the pipework from the air filter to the turbo. I cant imagine being able to put an angled entry on one of the IHI turbos.

It might be possible to adapt your manifold to do this but you are talking serious work.

Would be easiest to just switch manifold for the later design and then bolt the new turbo on with some samco hose underneath the higher manifold. Get yourself an oil catch tank or the mini K&N filters on the breathers, but these will make your engine bay filthy. An oil catch tank is a nice thing to have anyway.

This would only be a good idea if you are putting on a front mount. Otherwise you would need the non angled intercooler too.


edited to say, if you want a newer style inlet manifold with most of the ancillaries I can probably get you one.
