Hi, ive brought this turbo,just would like to know is it a T34. also which model did it come off. How easy is it to rotate the core or compressor around? could anyone point out which is the oil and water.

Thanks

Looks like one, they were originally off the big turbo escorts

The oil and water feeds are easy to determine, the drain for the oil feed is instantly recongnisable, as a hole with two threaded holes either side of it, to hold the drain back pipe on, exactly 180 degrees round from this ie uppermost is the oil feed, which will be a tapered hole that a connector adaptor between the feed pipe and turbo goes into, this then leaves the water holes it doesn't matter which way round the water flows as it is just flowing in and out, these will be much bigger than the other two holes, just about put your thumb in these.
Looks like BT escort t34 to me.

Thanks Guys,

so this turbo has two oil lines 180 degrees apart. and in bitween a 15.5mm tapped holes for the water intake and exit.

i would like to know, ive spun the blades/shaft and it dont spin freely, would you guys recommended putting oil down the oil line to lub the bearings? the shaft has no play.

any info

yes, and if that doesn't help, take the housings off - six bolts hold each housing on - something could be catching.

that not an escos t34, wrong exhaust housing for a start

Looks like some kind of built up with an escos compressor and is it a rst exhaust housing ? as the waste gate bits missing completely where as the escos one is integral

as above ive just had to strip one to put a cossie back houseing on it so im now left with a .63 back for an rs turbo when i need one 4 a cossie as its now got a standerd back houseing on

here are some pics of a comparsion of size compared to

right K24 KKK, IHI VF 22 and hopefully a T34

as you can see the size difference between the core's and compressor housing.

The T34 when compared to the a T3 (silimar size to the K24) is about twice its size.

how can i find out a correct model? i know its from a Escort Rs Turbo

also i have fixed the issue with the shaft spin, it was due to carbon build up between the housing. ive now opened and cleaned the core side and it spins perfectly.

so is it a T34? from the replies im a bit confused
