Hi guys I'm new here and looking for my first impreza,I've seen 1, that I am interested in,
The questions I have are,the current owner says it's running a td05,is there any way of checking this,also is there any other mods that have to be done with this turbo
it's a turbo 2000,96 plate
Thanks Indy

 

If its running a td05 then it'll have either an aftermarket ecu, ecutek remap or scoobyecu style chip, these depend on what year the car is. If there's no mention of a remap then walk away. If it's a front converted td05 then you should be able to see where the front has been welded on.

 

It will have a TD05 std with it being a 1996 car.

 

Ah ok,will it have any numbers on the turbo,to make sure,
engine wise it looks standard,has a dump valve,and I think a water ic spray

TD04 on uk car

OP, turbo type is cast into the alloy housing.

 

The TD05 is also fitted on UK cars upto 97... Someone correct me if i am wrong... but i am sure im right.

 

i think td05 only on wrx sti so on. all uk are td04. unless changed and upgraded to a td05 (like i have)

 

So if it has OP on the turbo housing,is that a td05 then

I was always led to believe that the pre 97 cars had a TD05 fitted, weather theyre imports or UK. Mine is a MY95 UK and i have a TD05. And so do a few other people i know. They fitted the TD04 in 1997.

 

As quoted my JGM. Post 16 -

No, Op stands for original poster, which is you! It will have TD04 cast in the side if its one of them, not sure about the TD05 though!

My bad, I stand corrected

 

To be honest, there so old now, who knows what turbo theyll have on them.

 

Oh my bad thought op was the turbo type,
So should a 96 turbo 2000 come with a tdo4 or td05
As standard,
I'm going to have a look at the car again Tomo,to have another
Look.
Thanks Indy

 

TD05 up untill 1997.

 

thanks for confirming that
