Hello im after a bigger turbo for my car and i dont know which one to get, i heard a tdo5 lags abit. I was looking for something off the lights really and got told to get a vf34, any ideas?

Thanks, Dan

 

what car?

 

For something off the lights, the 16g is a stormer

 

its a import on a k reg, but it has a uk2000 engine in. I have seen a tdo5 16g which has already been swapped over so its a str8 fit on my car its £150 does that sound alright?

 

Ive amended your text speak and put a reply here for you but what UK 2000 engine did you put in? a phase 1 engine (ie the same as yours) should have a TD05 16G on it anyway, a phase 1.5 engine (not the same as your original) will have a TD04 turbo and a phase 2 engine (really starts going wrong here for straight swaps) also has a TD04.

i got told lastnight its a phase 2 engine, it has a td04 turbo on it, and thanks tony lol

 

Ah then your screwed, the phase 2 engine has different injectors (440cc compared to 380cc) so I take it this engine is in your car and running now? (may not be a good thing tbh...)
Also are you still on the standard ecu??

yes mate its in the car, thats how i got the car tbf, and yes i think it is running a standard ecu. So...... why am i screwed lmao
