Thread: Which turbo ? Mitsu TD04 or Garrett GT22V ??

Here are some pics of the old Bruce Davis 300Tdi upgrade.
This is a 130 that lives on one of the nearby t/bred studs and was in the local mechanics for a water pump and steering box where I took these pics.
I know the owner fairly well and sometimes do service work there. I wonder if she'd notice the manifolds etc had mysteriously morphed .....

Looks like it uses a 200Tdi Disco exhaust manifold and turbine housing, with a custom cast dump pipe.
Sorry about the dodgy pics, used the phone cam in low light....

Can you post it again Rick I missed the first two. hehe Pat

Well how'd I do dat

Just clever I guess

Just out of curiosity, how many fins does a standard 300Tdi turbo have?

When I removed the head on BrendanBs Defender yesterday, I noticed that there were two sets of impellers (or what ever they're called on a turbo) and they were bolted together (overlapping) with a different pitch on each. Is that standard?

Rick, here is the installation of a VNT (or TGV, as we call in Spanish) made by a friend in his Defender 90.

Hi Tato,
could you please translate?

What kind of manifold did you use?
200 Tdi type?
Disco or Defender?

Give me a few days to be able to translate it.
My English is very basic, but with the help of some online translator I think I can do it

The manifold is from the HS2,8 Powerstroke Engine. This Engine it very common here in Argentina...its came in two versions 2,8 TGV (VNT) and 2,8 WG.
This engine is a derivate of the 300 TDI manufacturing in Brazil by MWM Internationa Engines, so, Its a straight forward change

Hola!
Buenas dias?


I know the 2.8 and there's even a Powerstroke-re-engined Disco here which belongs to a guy I know, not far from me but haven't had the chance to meet him again and see the engine yet

I didn't get a word of the pictorial guide and didn't think of a 2.8 spare

I will check the prices (there's a company in UK which sells parts) just out of curiosity and look forward to your translation

Thank you!
