406 turbo? - the milkman - 30-05-2013

RE: 406 turbo? - Midnightclub - 30-05-2013
406 sri 150 petrol turbo? 406 DT turbo? etc....
RE: 406 turbo? - the milkman - 30-05-2013
think its a 406 2.2 hdi

GT1549
Id better add that they are a vac actuated turbo with a 1 piece hot side so you cant bodge on a 306 exhaust flange even if the manifold flange is pretty close to perfect.
RE: 406 turbo? - the milkman - 30-05-2013
alright thanks for that chris bud
RE: 406 turbo? - Midnightclub - 30-05-2013
How different is the hotside compared to a 306 chris?
RE: 406 turbo? - Dum-Dum - 30-05-2013
It's a completely different flange and takes up alot more space even if it does point in roughly the right direction. The cold side pipe could be a bit big too.
You could hybrid it with a standard HDi GT1544 and make a good turbo for a little bit more power on a stage 2 map but the cheapest working one on ebay is currently £130 plus post. If you wanted to do it there is many cheaper, better and lower mileage GT1549s to use
Obviously I know nothing about this and im definitely not currently building one

Dont want to hijack the thread but what about a transit turbo? Ive got a couple of a 2.2TDI 100bhp turbo's lying around only done between 3k-14k what sort of gains or how good are they? The look small enough to fit.
RE: 406 turbo? - the milkman - 30-05-2013
Small enough to fit? Pftt you wanna go big enough so you have to make it fit!
RE: 406 turbo? - NP306 - 30-05-2013
The turbo sounds sweet on these 2.2 transits and they seem to fly for only 100ps
RE: 406 turbo? - Anton - 30-05-2013
Thats because they have oodles of torque...
Do you know what turbo is on the transit?
RE: 406 turbo? - NP306 - 30-05-2013
Ill check tomorrow morning and get a few pics
