i took my t34 in to a local place (turbo advantages ) who didnt have a good word to say about Turbo Technics Mine is a TT turbo and the guy says they machine a lot of old stuff to re-use ,making it weaker
He recons that when he opens mine up the housing will have been machined and oversized bearings used.He explained more but it went straight in and out the other ear.
Turbo advantages where recomended to me by a freind who uses them on his cars ,he rallys a escos and has a 6R4 nearly completed.So i would take his word .
