Pete is normally very helpful, a normal rebuild is£195+ vat, when it is stripped they will be able to give you the full spec and advise on any other work.
If it is a TT unit it should have a part number on it that will give the spec on the TT website
Tbh i dont know..the fella said they simply dont bother reconditioning the T25 series as aint worth the Hassle/cost...
its a stage 3 so i believe, its supposed to have a 360 bearing and a few tweeks.
It does have the TT plate on the act bracket...i never thought to check it off the site tbh, much appreciate that info fella.
Tbh its probs a T2 in drag

Cheers fella
Yeah they again didnt seem to keen when a friend enquired about it for me..
Turbo itself well..ALWAYS run's a filter on it so hoping there's been no ingestion of debri's.
Shafts all good as far as i can tell,tiny bit of in out, no up down play of any mallice imop..
Im looking at opening it up this weekend coming just to be sure theres no crack in exh housing and check the blades and wastegate and yeah deffo gonna look for scoring, leaks/cracks.......
as much as i can check i will.
it just seems very strange the noises its making...
starts off as a worbling when ticking over, then as pressure builds it changes to a screeching ssssh noise, not over loud but its deffo not the old crystal clear and healthy woooooooooosh on spool up she used to have..
Wondering if the 12psi i knocked it back down too has pissed it off
, it lived at 22 constant!!
Is it actually possible to damage a turbo by strangling its output?
Sounds a soppy question but id be interested to know if it could/would upset its dynamics when its being beaten shitless at half its desired capacity of design...
