What do you guys think of this?
I'm wanting to rebuild my TD04 over the winter due to a fair bit of shaft play. What about this??

nope im not going to now its too big 400bhp, i only want 340 max,going to try and find a hybrid td04 or a td05 18g, that kit if it is all that needed would make your td04 a hybrid, it think as is the td04 is 16t that kit makes it to 19 i think i may be wrong ...

All our standard TD04s are 13T, this kit makes it 19T. They have a complete TD04 19T hybrid for sale for £400. This kit strapped on to our own turbos would save a fortune and would effectively be "new" turbos!

I'm the same, just throwing a few ideas around really. My turbo is working fine and I'm sure it will continue to do so! Nobody seems to comment much about Kinugawa so I guess the only thing to do is buy the stuff!

Ahhhh lol! Mines a 97 Turbo 2000 with a few mods. Running about 260bhp at the moment. It had been running just under 300bhp according to some history I got with it. The bottom end went and my mate bought it. He had it rebuilt (new crank, rods etc) and then it sat for almost 2 years unused! Only had it since June.

You can pick another tdo4 for £50+ these days, I personally wouldn't bother rebuilding unless you want the experiance. I can't comment on this kit but I have had mates use Chinese kits as they seemed cheap and they failed within a few hundred miles. Could have been the kit or how they was put together.

We rebuilt my mates TDI turbo at about 90k. The vanes where dented all over on both sides. No way was that thing balanced. The whole unit span a lot freerer aswell. Net result. More boost
