Which Turbo do I have??
Does anybody know how i can find out exactly what Turbo is on my MY95 WRX Wagon (jap import). I have heard several different opinions as to whether it is a TD04 or a TD05 and i want to find out for sure for my tuning plans. Hard evidence only please. I have tried looking on IWOC and SIDC but have found nothing definative. Is there anyway to tell by looking at the turbo?
thanks Benno |
The only definate way of checking is to examine it physically. After all, it may have been changed in the land of the rising sun.
It should be a TD04 |

Any ideas how to tell the difference physically?? |
As Jlanng has already said it should have a TD04 standard but may have been 'fettled' with by our friends across the water before it graced our shores. ;)

Thanx Dellboy
Will check, I am assuming I will nead to remove the heatshield to see. It's a small thing that has been bugging me for a while now. Benno |
You need an experienced pair of eyes on it (rules me out). Alternatively, you might want to take a photo and post it here, but you probably won't be able to tell.
This isn't a definative test, but when does your turbo 'kick in'? |
The only picture I could find was here. At least you'll know what you're looking for, and where to look for it... :)

Thanks for all the help guys, think I know where to look now, not sure if I will be able see it with all the pipes connected (just popped out to have a look before, work colleagues think I am mad) but i might investigate further at the weekend.
BTW turbo starts to spool around 2500rpm kicks in about 3500rpm. :D:D:D Benno |
Nick your missus' make-up mirror out of her handbag when she isn't looking. Add a torch. Season to taste

Hmmm torch in car + female worker accross the room = zero work productivity this afternoon.
|
What's this "work productivity" then...? You might want to explain it to Dark Blue Mark as well...! :D Oh, and Horace of course ;)
|
I read about it on the net somewhere, think it was an article on Sweden, don't think it'll catch on here personally :eek:
|
Work, let alone productive work, sends a shudder right through me... :p
