code word   10 #2 Posted July 11, 2015 I honestly cant answer my friend need more info. However I must say a turbo sounds impressive. It is nothing more than a hair dryer . Nothing complicated about it. I got one for a Honda for a few quid from scrap yard. Let the garage fit it… All in £50. That’s fitting and getting it from scrappy.

mc55 Â Â 10 #6 Posted July 12, 2015 ironically the reman turbo my garage bought cost almost double what the genuine replacement cost from an authorised dealer. It also failed after just 5 weeks.

alchresearch   215 #8 Posted July 13, 2015 It is nothing more than a pipe with a fan. That’s it!!!  Its quite a lot more than that. And there are certain conditions on some cars that will destroy a replacement turbo if certain things aren't done.  OP - post up your make and model before replacing.
