Can anyone tell me anything about this turbo?
 

Been looking at upgraded turbo's for my 06 WRX and offered this turbo for £120

Apparently a TD05 16G

I've read a lot about cheap chinese turbo's, fake turbo's etc and wondering if anyone can tell me anything about this?

What should I look for when going to see it?

Cheers!

Looking at the data plate it's a bog standard Mitsubishi TD05H with a Subaru part number of 14412AA090 with a front entry conversion already done?

which makes it a TD05 -16G

rotor will have slight side to side play due to plain bearings but the shaft should not move axially (in/out).
Also check no contact between compressor and casing and excessive oil staining in the turbine housing.

Thanks for that mate appreciate it!

So potentially a very good buy for £120? Result! :thumb:

Assuming it's in good nick.....................
