Can i just bolt on a TD05 Turbo to the car ?

As long as you have a remap afterwards yes

dont forget the TD05 is a Straight housing (My99 onwards) and 90 for pre 99 otherwise you will need to mod the straight to a 90 housing

Depends what Year car do you have?

It Is a Direct Bolt on.

Just make sure you get the right housing for your Model year.

>MY99 - Straight
<MY99 - 90 Bend

But you will not be able to bolt this on and run it without a slight map change,

if your looking for a TD05 i would assume you have a Uk car with a TD04?

depends on what tdo5 and what car?

you have got that wrong mate, the tdo5 only came with a 90degree up-swept inlet as standard and was only fitted as standard to pre facelift suabrus, they were not fitted to any subaru model after mid 96

Your right mate i was just stating that a TD05 on a >99 car would need the Straight Housing and a <99 would be 90

as the 16g,18g,20g all come in the Straight Housing

Darc174

that turbo will not Bolt "direct" on.

as it has the 90 bend

Yes.

Neil, if you buy a second hand MY93-96 16g as per your pic then you have to cut that snorkel intake off leaving enough of a collar for the turbo inatke hose to clamp to.

Or you might be able to send it to Andy Forrest so he can change the compressor housing over to a 'straight entry' one, as per in Darc's pic - but it'll cost more, obviously...

Or just buy a brand new, slightly modded one from Andy (spools a bit quicker than the OEM one). If you intend to run the 16g close to its max of 340+bhp, then no point in chucking loads of boost through a turbo of at least 13y 8m old! - who knows how much longer it'll last?!... Best to get AF's one...

your still wrong mate they were only ever fitted to pre facelift cars, by that i mean anything after 97 would never have come from the factory with the tdo5 as standard,

16g was only ever 90 entry degree standard turbo fitted to the impreza, 18/20g were after market only and only came in straight entry

so all i need to do is cut the coller of as you have said. So i can buy that in the pic ?

Not going to buy a new one just yet as i have only just put my foot in the door with the turbo world lol

Darc174

iTrader: (13)

i know mate the 16g never came in a Straight housing hence why i said a 99 car "would" need the Straight housing.

like you stated the 18g 20g are straight housing as they are a after market product

I'd say you need to make sure you can have at least 10mm of collar left so that the intake hose can clamp around it with a jubilee clip. If not then a machine shop will have to weld a shallow section of suitable diameter metal pipe to the 'stump' that'd be left...
