Replacement Turbos

[racer]

...or oil injection system in my case. Right. Having just done Manchester - Glasgow - Falkirk - Manchester and gone through 6 litres of oil in the process (and that's staying off the boost as much as possible!), I admit defeat on the turbo front.

OK, who's going to tell me were I can get a new Turbo (R Reg V70 T5 CD), without needing to grovel to Mr Bank Manager?

or lots of free oil....

Thanks, I've PMed Adam.

Ah. Cat. Oops, yes, probably resembles a used oil filter by now. Oh well, maybe it will recover in time if I get the turbo sorted out.

That wont be new now will it?? New to you possibly. It costs more than that to get them refurbed.

Thanks for the quote Adam. Going to have to think about this. Rebuilt engine deserves a new unit I think, rather than an unknown from a salvage place. Just had a big one at Castle Combe with the race car, so I need to find out what that's going to cost me first!

19T is the best size - with the least lag. But they are pricy. 15G or 16T are excellent units with zero lag.
