Hi,

it looks like my T34 turbo is almost broken - where should I buy a new one and should I go for the T34 turbo again? I'm going stage 3 (without RS500 cooler) during this winther.


Kind regards

turbo technics, turbo dynamics, and the respective tuners around

 

try gettin it repaired first as new ones cost so much

 

I dont think I can get i repaired

It looks like this, but works fine (revne = crack).

so just needs another housing then. big deal, buy a housing, and change it yourself.

 

How much is that and where should I get it from? Should it just be std. T34 from Escort Cosworth?

Thomas

 

yeah....change the ex.house.

 

there's different sizes available thomas. so called .63 is the biggest and presents less of a restriction to the exhaust gases so makes more power but is slower to spool up. below that is .43 and i think that there's another one. don't know what escos had. your one should be marked up with what it is anyway, and if you are happy with the response, get the same.

sorry, i wouldn't know where to buy it from.

 

Okay thanks I'm going stage 3, but it should spool up as it always have. I will pay a visit to a local turbo specialist and ask him

i think (but im not sure) that if its a big turbo off a escort (T34/T35) it should have a .63 as standard, well mines got a .63 anyways

 

there are also .55 and .48 ex.housings.

 

.55 that's the one. and .48 rather than .43

 

Just spoke to the turbo specialist and my tuner. I will buy a housing and put some 360 bearings in it. Total price of 860EUR. I believe the std. housing on bhe big turbo Escort T34 is .63.
