It is a very small turbo, probably get about 200bhp out of it.
tends to whine horribly at revs over 3000, it also needs to be replaced at 60000 miles, has a tendancy to melt or overheat at temps of over 70c and starts smelling of fish..
Dont buy it.
rather just pass it to me for immediate testing

VF24 is the same as the VF28 I made 312 bhp at PE on this turbo running std map and injectors, take away 30 bhp over read on their rollers and you have a figure close to 280 bhp

Swiss, nah, i like the smell of fish so that`ll do nicely ta

Andy, hey mate, hope you`re doing good My aim is to take the bugeye to a "real" 300bhp with similar torque. I need to know if this turbo will do the job basically.
