Bone Yard TURBO options

Post by BUELLRIDER »

I am getting ready to install all of my Turbo parts. I do not have a Turbo any more. What is good options for a Turbo from the Bone Yard Volvo, Benz ECT????? My bone Yard is having a 1/2 off sale this weekend so I want to get one then.

Not many options will be good for a junkyard turbo and it will be pricey when you need to get the supporting parts in place. How are you going to add fuel? Where will you get the exhaust turbo manifold? Oil drain and oil feed need to be thought about. Intercooled or not?

I'd worry about this with an M90 since injectors are sort of difficult to source.

A T3/T4 framed turbo is what you need but then it needs to have the right provisions to mount to the exhaust manifold. Usually you need to get one with an external wastegate.

I have the Manifold and a KKK Turbo that needs a new Bearing . Wastgate and intercooler I can get on the web.
