TD05 Upgrade?
Hi,
I will be upgrading my TD04 turbo to a TD05 very soon....Am hoping someone can help me answer the following questions:
How can i be sure that the turbo that i will be purchasing is in good nick?
Is this difficult to fit assuming that it already has the front entry conversion?
Will i notice as much Lag as i do in the TD04?
What will the perfomance differences be?
Do i have to get Metal head Gaskits fiited?
I am running a Fower Fc in my car aslong with other mods.
Thanks
Sam

Check to see if there is play in the shaft .
Last time I changed a turbo it took me 3 hours.
TD05 comes in at about 3000-3200rpm for 1 bar.
As for performance depends who is mapping it .

hi
i have a tdo5 fitted and i am fitting the fc at the moment
no difficulty to fit the td05.you must have the banjos who are bigger on td 05 and grind a lug of the engine that touch the turbo body if it is a phase2 engine
not necessary to change the head gasket.
improvement is great if the power fc is well mapped (that's the reason i bought the FC)

More. Its a bigger turbo. From memory it hits around 1bar @3100RPM (someone confirm?)
