What is the difference between the various 18g, 20g, 16g TD05's??

td05 comes as a small 16g compressor wheel and housing.
16g can also be bought in "large" format, with the 18g td05 they fit an 18g compressor wheel and housing, same goes for a 20g.
basically the "g" figure referes to the size of the compressor wheel (the side of the turbo that connects to the inlet pipe/filter).
16g good for 340bhp or so
18g good for 370 or so
20g good for 390 or so

more can be had by running race gas

 

Thanks mate, you have just given a Techno-idiot a little more knowledge!!

Where is it these numbers are e.g 16g 20g etc.... ?

 

Shame on me as I don't know either

!! I run a TD05 18G from andy forrest (which is good for 400 BHP plus) I assumed that the "G" was the mass of the turbine on the compressor side .. ??

I assume it's not that, as IIRC it's something like a 13H wheel fitted to the the TD04, think I've even heard of an 11L (smaller TS04 on a legacy or something?).

Sorry - that doesn't actually help much, as whilst I can suggest what the answer isn't, I don't know what it is!
