Right, before i get onto ebay and report this prick who has done nothing but fuck me about (long story)

I brought a hybrid t3 ESCORT (supposedly) turbocharger from this said person, got it home and it looks like one of these:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-UNIVERSAL-...item35a4f1005f

bits missing, (ie vacuum nipple etc) theres a round blanked plate there where the nipple should be but no thread or nipple my question is are these easy to modify to make fit an escort, or are they nothing but aggro, IM FUMING!

It's a universal turbo, it will need a few things changing to fit the specific car. If you are saying there is no wastegate feed on the turbo, then you can take it from anywhere else after the turbo.

It has nothing but the sides for the oil feed and return mate, but u think its not hard to correct? the turbo is meant to be a t3/t4 (hybrid but it looks much bigger then a t3, i gotta fit it in my FRST engine bay :S thanks for ur time

No Water pipe fittings? Doesn't matter if not, it's just not water cooled. You need to block your water pipes off. A t34 is bigger than a t3. If it's for a 1600, it won't be boosting till high up in the rev range.

Thanks again for ur help mate, no theres no water pipe fittings, blocking the pipes off is ok, yes its on a 1600 :S do u think it will fit in a fiesta turbos bay? obviously rad will have to be moved etc, so basicly it just needs the actuator nipple thread putting in? cheers

If it is indeed one of those 200 quid jobs mate, whack it back on ebay and get a genuine t3 if you don't want any fitting issues (which you probably will, especially in a fiesta)! Bloody nightmare when you get mesed around and end up buying somethin you didn't want, i've been there too mate and you've just gotta learn from it, sometimes you really do get what you pay for sadly
