has anyone seen the t04 turbos advertised on ebay and can anyone shed any light on there performance. the ebay auction reads,


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


RS COSWORTH T04 Turbo unit with heavy duty 360 degree Thrust Bearing.



TO4 Stage 3 Turbo for any Cosworth Sierra or Escort.

Complete with RS 500 style wastegate housing this will bolt to any cossey 3 stud exhaust e.g. Mongoose.

This is a Brand new Turbo with a stage 3 compressor and wet floating bearing and 360 deg thrust bearing..

Due to having no spec sheet or technical data on this turbo unit I am starting the sale with a low start and no reserve price but sold as seen.

they are really cheap (around £450) and brand new. but as there is no spec does anyone know what sort of bhp they will be capable of and what make are they. here is a picture.

not a rs500 t4, but similar, without knowing what comp wheel is used, you can only guess.

 

things are normally cheap for a reason........

 

cause people are muggy enough to believe everything without a flashy brand name is utter junk

but with no spec and info, that thing is a risk.

 

I remember only a few weeks ago you saying that most of the turbos you see on Ebay were junk - In my experience, it always works out to be less time and hassle, and usually just about the same price to buy from a reputable supplier and have the warranty etc and have somthing that is 100% going to fit and work correctly....

 

pish

 

Dont do ebay turbos a rebuild or new one can be cheaper if you know were its from ypu can take it back
also loads of ebay one have only lasted weeks

AND YER MINE WAS ON THE T34.65 but that was from A1RS
