Dead turbo

[series3100]

Hello all.

Does anyone have a knackered 200tdi disco turbo they want to donate to a good cause?

As i say the turbo can be 'dead' because i am swapping the internals from a non dead but cut in half turbo...

My price range would be between £0 and very few £ - Its for a good cause after all!

Cheers, Briam

you do know you need to balance a turbo dont you?
ive got a 19j td turbo with knackered seals you can have for postage but i dont think it will do on a disco.

Yep im aware of this, im hoping there's a way of not taking it apart that much though, I was hoping I could use the turbine 'bit' on another un molested exhaust 'bit'. I think im going to talk to Snagger about it as i think he did some turbo swapping somehow. I don't think a 19j turbo would be much use to me - Thanks for the offer though.

Cheers, Brian

Mr Nobber, any idea what the postage would be on a turbo, i've got an idea for a project for the air cadets

no idea but i will find out for you and let you know.
i dont think it has the actuator with it though.

that doesn't matter, it's not going to go on anything that'll run. I teach the cadets propulsion and they have trouble understanding the concept of turbos/superchargers and it would help to explain the turbine/compressor setup too.
