TD05 Turbo Upgrade
Hi guys,
I am looking at buying a TD05 turbo...I am putting the turbo on a MY93 Import Impreza Saloon. Most of the ones I have seen are 16G....what does that mean and is that ok for my purpose?? Also....one boasts that it has been converted to front entry...is that a good thing?!?! If my car is standard do I need a front entry one??
Cheers
Andy

i'e put a piccy up on where the id plate is on my mates td05 for you(just ask if you need to now where to look)
Front entry on our cars means you have to move some bits around as the space is very limited (not sure what bits though) and i don't think it's worth it if the car is standard but it depends if you are going to mod it at all.

Hi mate...that's excellent...at least I know what I'm looking for now!! Thanks for that mate...much appreciated.
You were saying that on the original pic you put up it was by the bend in the strut brace....is that still the case?? Just so I know what angle to look at it from and where abouts it is!!
Cheers again

Have you still got the original airbox on if so whilst looking the engine (as in the piccies) on the smaller box of the induction system (in line with the expansion tank)there is a small hose that comes out and is connected to the manifold i removed it and shone a light down there and thats where the plate is on my mates car.
HTH
On my piccy the tube (same one i removed from my mates')I removed is the one coming from hard pipe of my IK kit parallel and below the strut brace

No mate I have got an aftermarket induction kit. I will check and see if I can see the plate from where you are describing. I will remove the tube for the induction kit and see if that helps me at all.
Watch this space mate!! I will try and look tonight but it will be dark so probably harder to see. Prob best to put a camera in as far as I can get and take a pic!
