I suspect (ie total guess) it's a similar compressor wheel as found in the MD309, shoehorned into a front entry TD05 with some porting of the exhaust housing and wastegate.

TD05/06 is another alternative which with careful boost mapping looks like the business, similar price too.

edited to say TD05 not TD06, duuuh.

LOL, as we're flopping them out, here's one I prepared earlier :

then why not go one better...


(Lateral Performance MD320 to save you asking)

Why did I sell it.. oh I remember.. becuase I went silly and felt left out by these 500bhp conversions..

Why didnt I just stick with the above and save loads of money

Anyway the person that bought it... Have you fitted it yet???

David

 

What are the components used in the MD320? compressor wheel/housing, core, exhaust wheel/housing.

Alan

 

David- are you on marks payroll???

 

JonnyGav, you having a laugh???

I've just given him the best part of this years salary..

Its a garrett wheel in it..

David

 

in that case he should be able to afford a banner add then

 

Or maybe a cleaner?

 

PMSL

 

What compressor wheel is found in the 309?

Alan

 

No idea Alan, all I know is that the "rated" power is in the same ball park.

Paul

 

 

how would this turbo compare to the TDO6 upgrade???

was thinking of doing this as my next mod as it only costs around £600

what is the price on the MD320???

 

you would have to speak to mark (as I dont work for him ), but It was suprisingly priced.. (I supplied mark with a TD05, However it was a fair few months late)

Depends what a td05 costs you I suppose... They can be prone to cracking so check before you buy one..

 

thanks David

 

What's the outside diameter of the inlet where the inlet pipe fits onto on the MD320?

Alan

 

YHHM

(you have had mail)



David

 

Hmmm

I'd like to know how these 'small' compressor housings are supposed to compliment the flow from the big wheel that's carved into them ?

PS Out of the 20 odd TD05's I have handled, not one had any cracks....anywhere !

 

Andy,

You're lucky. I've had 3 with cracked exhaust housings. None of which could be identified until they were stripped for re-building.

Mark.

 

mark- what is the price on a MD320 and how much are you paying David???

 

Whatever the price of the turbo is, less whatever the cost that I bought a sti4 engine in leeds for on marks behalf, then the cost for stripping it and boxing it up. (for someone to collect on his behalf)

So go figure.. (Rough Translation.. I Paid more than you will get quoted... as i bunged mark some extra cash as he didnt charge me straight away due to my finacial problems at the time)

David

 

Gary, Is that turbo off the golf??

I wish I could post the pics of what I have in the garage..Its even bigger than my turbo..

David

 

what ..... keeping secrets now david, that's not on

or is it just your camera has been repo'd by Dad

Andy

 

Mark

Maybe we don't drive them as hard in Scotland Most of the exhaust housings I've done have been ported including the wastegate and I have had no cracked ones.
A few have had damaged compressor wheels but cores/turbine/casings were fine.
Even on high mileage units, the radial movement of the shaft has been within 0.002" of a fully rebuilt core. Tough little burgers

Andy

 

Hi David - yeah, a Hybrid AmD/TurboDynamics GT25

 

Come one david just a sneaky pic

Mail me the pics you got mine

Rob

 

I could mail you the pics if you like Rob Most people have seen it before anyway........on Mark Aigin's car

 

Andy, do i take it from your 2 posts in this thread refering to the quantity of TD05's YOU have handled and converted, that you are doing these for other people?

 

that compressor wheel in the modded td05, its a garrett from a diahatsu charade gtti aint it?

 

Sorry Steven, I couldn't possibly say without a banner ad
