looking at changing my turbo. bought brand new from lateral in may and has done 3000miles on 10/60 nanodrive oil. ceramic coated and in virtually new condition..i paid 2250 looking for 1800 ono..
rated at 480bhp with the billet v wheel fitted. http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...psk5rq8ybb.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...psexde0tyh.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...psyg7jgdx3.jpg http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/c...pslinvjgwh.jpg |
Only been mapped at 1.3 bar.made 380bhp.be superb on a forged 2.1 or 2.5. Comes with all the fitting kit too.

do you guys think the price is too high

To much mate, tell you what I will bung you £1000 as a favour for it! Only kidding obviously! I’ve been looking at loads of secondhand turbos, think the problem you may face is if your spending say £500 on a used turbo people feel semi comfortable about it and hope the seller is being honest. When your spending near 2k people worry more that it could be a dud. If you have graphs related to the motor showing it only running x amount of boost, producing x amount of BHP it may help convince people it’s not been battered. It clearly looks in good condition in general but that doesn’t always guarantee it’s a good one. Maybe some more info as to why your changing etc may help. You say bought in May, assuming this year 3k miles in that time is a lot really which some people may also question. Do you have the original bill of sale? A copy of that would also help I’m guessing. Just my thoughts. |

that's a std spec c top mount and panel filter, decat and exhaust fitted.
also got the receipt to from lateral in my name |
299 is wheels and 379 is fly
|
Which turbo are you going to use instead? I have one of these myself (for a 2.1 stroker with AVCS heads) and I hope to map my car this fall, was kind of expecting more than 379 bhp at 1.3 bar for a 480 bhp turbo though? Good luck with the sale, I know how much it hurts buying one of these new :cry:

I suspect it will need 1.7 bar to light it up to late 400ish,but I want to keep the spec c with tmic if I can
|
on a 2.1 at 1.3 with induction you should see early 400,s
|
just checked receipt it was 2100 all in so 1700 is now the correct price ono
|
Yes of course, I have a FMIC and a large filter so that would help and the plan is to run 1.8 bar after running in the engine. A healthy VF36 shouldn't give you too much of a power drop and would have a nicer register.

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...a3d465275c.jpg These engines don't make any real usable power below 4 grand anyway, Buy a German TFSI if your after a torquey@2grand engine |
i askes cause my single turbo spec c with Garrett GT3076 and 450bhp does have full boost @4500 too, i thought it would be earlier on twinscroll

My Upgraded SC42 is roughly the same 1.5bar @ 4.5k https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.sco...77bdcd5d4d.jpg |

Can keep the ELH and the advantage that they bring, |
i think you arent right, twin scroll is exact what you have explained: twin entry. these turbos are named as twin scroll on lateral too:

http://lateralperformance.co.uk/prod...et_twin_scroll Specific Wheels designed to work with the Twin entry Exhaust housing, https://www.scoobynet.com/scoobynet-...-question.html See post 10 of thread above |
Twin scroll and twin entry are two different things. Exhaust side is completely different.
|
What year car is this for? MY08 + is fly by wire and I understand the housing is slightly different.
|
Do you have any pictures of it since removal?
|
Its a 2003.so wont fit fly by wire without mod.turbo will be off in 2 weeks a i am currently on my holidays.will post pics on here when removed.
|
swap you a R6 Yamaha motorbike valued 1500 for it lol ….
