Small Bits For a Turbo Change? - bigcheez2k3 - 07-02-2013

Hoping to get a TD04 installed and after searching I've worked out I need a Turbo (duh!), adaptor plate and the oil line.

What about smaller things like a D-seal? Want to make sure I have everything for when it gets done.

D seal, the tdo4 oil return pipe is shorter than the standard turbo so you will need a longer length of pipe

I changed the gasket on the elbow while it was easy to get to for the sake of a few quid

New inlet gasket and I think that's about it really

O-rings for the high pressure oil line (new line might have them), for the sake of a few pence they're probably worth changing, and forget about them all together and you'll have serious leakage!

Oh this car is gonna be even more epic. You need a project thread up for it! Not seen any pics of it since you've had it.

Will be keeping an eye on this!

You'll need (IMO):

New inlet/exhaust gasket.
New D-Seal
Length of pipe for oil return - make sure the turbo comes with a drain pipe...
Exhaust elbow gasket if you're keeping with the OEM elbow.
Coolant - for if you decide you need to pull off the heater matrix pipe on the right hand side of the head to wiggle the turbo past...
Custom air intake pipe if you plan on using a filter - I run defiltered but would always recommend anyone uses a filter.

Then obviously adapter plates, turbo and the oil line.

Tbh I would just forget about a td04! Look into other turbos which will spool sooner. I'm going for a new k03 after having a td04 for 6 months


RE: Small Bits For a Turbo Change? - Ruan - 09-02-2013

As David says, there's much better turbos out there...

BUT - can you be bothered with the hassle of wondering if it'll fit...

Anything will fit with the correct persuasion tool


RE: Small Bits For a Turbo Change? - bigcheez2k3 - 09-02-2013

Thanks for the replies Smile

Atm I'll stick with the TD04 as haven't driven it properly in 2 weeks and not working either because car is broken.

Esp after spending £250 on a turbo and bits to get it working! I have a bad feeling my '25 isn't gunna fit Undecided

A hammer and angle grinder always makes stuff fit Wink

Best to get all the gaskets and seals from Pug? Was looking on ebay but then I can't return them if certain things don't get used, depends what Kris takes off to do the job.
