hi would anybody be able to tell me how how to identify an tdo5 turbo, ive noticed that there are 16g, 18g 20g? but ive looked and cant find anything to relate to which one it is. the reason is that i want to sell it as its a 90 degree inlet and the turbo i got on my car is a front entry inlet

these are some numbers that are on it.

tdo5h
78-10810
14412AA090
49178-06200

if any one has got one of can you match these numbers?

cheers chris

 

I believe its a 16G according to these numbers 49178-06200

 

thanks for that mate, how did you find that out,

 

You can change the entry mate if you want to keep it.

 

TurboChargers.com - TD05H 16G 7CM2

 

what would be involed to do that mate. as ive has a look and it looks welded ive just had a look at my turbo on my car and its says its a td04 so surely the td05 is a better turbo, the lad who i brought the turbo of said it is bigger than std but i wasnt sure, i got the td05 before i got the new car.
cheers for your help

 

thats very helpfull thanks mate ive had a look, what i seen was the part number a bit different the one on the webpage quotes 49178-05200 but mine says 49178-06200 the last 4 numbers different,

There is a guy that posts on here that converts the housing from side to front entry, he did one for me, If i remember correctly it was about £70 and a very good job he does to.

If you want i will find his contact details

 

nice one. if you can that would be great and help me out alot
did you do the same swap over to better turbo?

 

PM fiestaboy or andy.f they will help you.

 

I never actually fitted it, i bought a side entry by mistake, had it in the garage for months, had it converted to front entry, again sat in the garage for ages, then sold it, as i thought i was selling the car.

Decided against selling just bought yet another 16g, this time a front entry, which is being fitted just after Xmas.

 

Just to add, the guy that bought it from me was running it on his P1 with quite high power and has had no complaints

Drop him a PM, nice chap too

 

is this 16g a lot better upgrade for the std turbo for a wrx or they a std turbo on a sti or something?

 

I believe they are standard on the jap imports

No UK car had them as standard as far as i know
