My turbo bearings went on my type when i was at the ring so i brought a used one and then i got the broken one refurbed this is now for sale £300 posted mint condition.

 

which type 25 is it off? Thanks.

 

Its of the mk1

 

Thanks

 

bttt

 

could you tell me which model it is please? v36/v37?
also who done the re-furb and is there any kind of guarantee with this?

 

It is an MD366s which is a hybrid turbo, a VF37 turbine mated to a VF22 compressor housing.

They were made by Turbo Dynamics for the mk1 Type 25.

HTH

 

ok. do you know what kind of power these turbos make?
i'm looking to replace my turbo as i wanted more power and i saw this come up. also do you know whether i can use this as direct bolt on replacement or would i need to change other bits.

i've got a 05 WRX blob.

i understand that i need to do the usual injectors, intercooler, exhaust, up n down pipes but would there be anything specific that i might of overlooked?

any help would be appreciated

 

You will need to change your exhaust headers (as twin scroll turbos work best with equal length headers), exhaust up pipe and down pipe plus your oil sump to accommodate the different headers.

I think they are capable of up to 380bhp with the right supporting mods.

Sorry you might need to change your turbo oil lines as well but not too sure on that though.

 

you need sump and headers and downpipe to convert to twinscroll

 

Cheers fodder. Fozi i was running 381ft trq 350bhp there is nothing else that needs to be changed apart from whats mentioned.My mate changed compressor wheel and cleaned it up i then ran it for 2k miles so is as new.

 

If you want serious spool up this is the one but if you just after a bigger better turbo i would go for something else md ectect but these will set you even second hand at 8-£900 so the choice is yours

oil lines same and water.

 

thanks for all the info guys. i suppose the only difference upgrade wise really is the sump and the headers as i knew or have carried out all the other mods moving towards a turbo change. Big Fud i will keep you posted. I suppose if i can get the headers and sump and it doesn't cost me too much more then i will take your turbo....i'm loving the sound of 381lb ft trq!!!

 

Its not just 381ft trq its how soon it comes in ask any one on here who has owned a type 25 or still has one,The spool up is emence lol its here if you want it mate no rush.

 

thank you sir...just need to find the other bits now!!

 

would this be a good upgrade to the vf37? on standard blob sti import?

 

You would need to buy all that fodder has advised then yes.

 

hi the car is already twinscroll so i wouldnt need to buy those parts..currently running 340/340, would this be an ideal upgrade turbo over the VF37 twinscroll on it already?

 

This turbo was on my brothers Spec C, it made 370-380bhp, it flows more at the top end.

 

cool sounds like a good upgrade for my brother then, i'll ask him when i get home for his car. Fud any chance of postage? or just collection? so the turbo is stamped with MD366?

Edit: just noticed the price is posted. i will ask him and let you know..

 

I recall cause of its weight when i posted last 1 it was £17 so just add this to cost and ill post recorded .

 

ok no worries. so is the turbo stamped with md366? knnowing my brother he'll moan and say how can he tell its not just a vf37 like what hes already got lol

 

Its got a tybo dynamics badge on with md 3?? so i would sugest yes the last 2 numbers are faint But i can 100% assure you its originall check my I trader feeding FUD can be trusted lol.

 

Eggy don't worry, Fud is a trustworthy chap. Just ask Banny.

 

eggy its a MD366s same on my car take it from me they are a cracking turbo plus Mark might not have told you that the core is a garret and its cast into the casing which the standard casing doesnt have on.

 

Ill put it on here for all to read anything wrong with the turbo when fitting ill give funds straight back hows that.

 

That must of done it lol deposit received cheers grant.

 

Grant drop me a pm mate regarding turbo..

cheers
fud.
