Hi all

if anyone has an old standard M35 turbo they want to sell (or loan), please let me know.

It doesn't have to be working, as long as there are no cracks on the inner turbine & compressor housings.

I'm wanting to get one high flowed & then swap over with mine so as to have minimal time off the road.

Will be happy to return my turbo after this if you want it for your own project (it could be better than your current one).

Alternatively, in the interests of helping out the community, I can make it available for others who would like to do the same swap as me - sort of a loan turbo.

Cheers, Leon.

Sounds like you might be going down the Hypergear route?

I'll also be interested in utilising a loan turbo in a few months if someone is prepared to make one available, or if you want to defray the cost a bit Leon.thumbsup.gif

I would lend my housings out but there's no guarantee I would have a good set if I ever decide to put it back in. I may know where to get another damaged turbo though, I will get back to you.

You guessed it, lol. It looks like the best value option for my needs, but I've only really been thinking about it for a few days.

It makes sense to me to have one ready to go in at the same time as you take the old one out. Could be a bonus if you're paying for workshop time, or if (like me) you forget how you got the bolts out the week before.

Thanks Scott, it'd be great if you stumbled across one in your travels. I'm in no particular hurry as my car is still driveable, for now.

Didn't I read recently where you said you hadn't seen a standard turbo with a cracked housing? But I wouldn't be lending yours out if it is still in good working order.

I've got one too FYI Leon.

Cheers

Haha, they're everywhere it seems. Thanks mate, but I think I'm right to go.

Good to know Jase, I might need one too! :thumbsup:

Did you high flow yours?

That was the plan, just haven't gotten to it. That said, I'm not sure my spare is even stuffed? Has no side to side shaft play, maybe a little in-out play.
