will a 2wd turbo fit on a 4x4 or are they different???

 

i'd also like to know if the two turbo's are the same or not? and if theyre different whats the differences.

cheers

 

They will fit both
The comp housing will need loosening and spinning round to the correct angle and the oil return pipe is different on 4x4 to 2wd so will need changing

 

ahhh cheers spadge, knew you would be able to answer it

 

but your better off with a 4wd one if my memory serves me right

 

cheers pop's .... hope you had a good xmas?

 

not bad thank you very much

 

spadge wot's the difference between the 2 pipes then, and doesnt it upset the oil seals changing the pipes over??

 

i assume the blades and housings etc are the same size on both then?

 

the 4x4 turbo has a machined cover and larger 60 trim compressor wheel so no not the same as 2wd, really its the one to have unlesss going t34 etc. But as spadge said each will need orientation changing to fit other, make sure once fitted the oil feed is directly above return or you may hit problems

 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 2wd turbos have clearance holes for the manifold studs, and the 4x4 turbos have studs that pass through holes in the manifold (or is it the other way round?) - so unless you're prepared to mess about with drilling out holes/studs and using nuts and bolts, they're not easily interchangeable.

 

very true !!

the 2wd does have a set of 4 studs in the exh house flange , these will need to be removed and the holes drilled out to make it fit the 4wd manifold !!

 

thanks for the replys lads, got that sorted in me head now
