I did the bloke was a bit of a knob but yes for 400 quid you can have a gt28 turbo on your focus Rs + new down pipe.

You will need new oil and water feeds for the turbo and thats it.

Cheers,

Jim

Cheers,

Jim

For 400 quid it's gotta be worth a shot mate.

I am thinking about it could work out a nice little saving or on the other hand it could just be a load of wank

Cheers,

Jim

kmrobertson3 not necessarily, a lot of the cost of the Garrett will be development and testing whereas someone in the middle-east (or wherever with cheap labour/materials) obviously just ripped the design off and produced their own. Don't worry though, nothings going on my baby before I know a hell of a lot more about it!

Cheap labour ok, cheap materials a definite no no. There is a lot of heat going through the turbo so I wouldn't chance it.

If it's the same material but it costs less why would that matter?

As I said mate, I'll look into it carefully!!
