    Faster spoolup turbo

    My 110 TD5 battles at low revs but pretty impressive once the turbo kicks in.

    I found this turbo in the UK that apparently spools up quicker. Has anybody else installed one of these and did it make a difference to driveability?

    That's for a 10P motor, not a15P or 16P.
    The price looks almost too good to be true. Have you checked out shipping cost?

    Are the turbos different between Td5's?

    Apparently. From the vendor's site:

    452239-0003
    452239-0005
    452239-0006
    452239-0008
    452239-0009

    I'm trying to determine which turbo I have.

    TD5 turbos all the same.
    Turbo rebuild are a great business to deal with and have been using them for years.

    the hybrid turbo core is a good bit of kit and i fitted them to a lot of customers TD5, plenty of AULRO members here have also had good results.
    most noticeable on a D2 auto TD5.
    on a manual yeah still worth doing and way better priced than anything else, i'm sure if you do a search you will find past posts on them
    Regards
    Daz

    I got one, for a 300TDi though, from them. Great service and well built bit of kit. Can't speak for the performance increase, as my original one was, err, toast so a hair dryer would have been an improvement.
