Default Almost brand new cored T34 with 0.55 a/r

This is not your usual exhaust housing though, it is one of the rare Ford Motorsport "cheat" housings . Basically, it is still badged up as a 0.63 a/r, but was cast with a 0.55 a/r. This was because the 0.63 a/r one (which was homologated, and so could not be changed), was too laggy in certain situations, so a solution had to be found, and this was it .

This turbo came off my own Escort and I put a brand new core (360° bearing, 7° cut back blades etc) 500miles before I removed it off the car to make way for the T4. It's sat in the garage all bagged up ever since.

£510 delivered (outright, no exchange required). Please PM me if interested, as I don't tend to view the posts in here very often .

This turbo is good for around 390bhp max (engine dyno), although I have a print out from G-force which says it makes 402bhp . Needs a minimum of light blues to make the most of it .

I've got one of these Turbos - ran 371bhp at 28 psi on my greys and NMS chip. No other major engine mods (standard cams / head etc)

It's the perfect balance between the T34 .48 and the T34 .63 - good power and minimal lag. Plus the price is very fair too - mine was around £800 or more and a T3 Turbo.

Apologies for jumping on your thread Mike - just putting my 2p in as usual!

Cheers
Simon
