Hopefully spooky will come on hear and we can here his side. What did abs turbos say about the turbo, mr breakdown
car.crash

why is it people always take sides before hearing it all out. give the bloke a chance and let spooky box his own corner.

has the shaft snapped. hold the comp wheel and try and turn the exhaust wheel it shouldnt turn if your holding one side of it

People bar one were asking questions to asertain wether it was fitted correctly if not help could be given. not a dig.... and not taking sides

I dont think anyone is taking anysides car.crash, bill is just being bill with his tick for punctuation, and im laughing at him. I dont even know spooky, just want to get to the problem and sort things.
can you check the shaft please
A more in depth explanation as to what's happening would help. The fact ''it doesn't work'' means nothing.

I'm taking sides :agree:
Well, I'm taking a side. I'm going to take the left side, and put it on the right side, so then it becomes the wrong side :scratch:

it dont boost at all with the turbo on as if its not got a turbo on the engine

Any smoke, oil from anywhere?
Is the actuator plumbed up and attached to the wastgate?
does the shaft spin freely by hand ? doesn't look bent or catching the housings ? and is the wastegate closing all the way ?
what type of turbo is it ? it's not just laggier than you expect ?

What happens with the right side though after you put the left side in it? :confused:

if anyone on here got a blow turbo than ur welcome to try this one as it wont smoke its a t25
breakdown

and the turbo i borrow of my mate at the moment is much bigger and is fine :scratch:
If it's not boosting, the wastegate could be open prematurley and bleeding off the exhaust gas before it hits the turbine wheel. You just need to shorten the actuator rod in that case. The penny should be clamped against it's seat firmly

just spoke to abs turbo and he said he check the wastegate

Did the guy at abs turbos have an opinion of what was wrong with the turbo?
breakdown
06-10-2009, 21:41
that the rear blades could be the problem
TrixNFlix
06-10-2009, 21:45
ahh ok, so if you look in the back housing do the blades from the wheel look like the've scraped the sides? if you wiggle the back wheel does it get stuck on the housing sides?
Literally just replied...
Hi
I sold you a working, boosting turbo. It was literally taken off my car the morning I posted it out, it was still warm in the packaging!!!
I have offered to help and have given you advice on what to look at and try etc
Why would I sell something, of whatever value and know it didn't do what it's meant to do ?
I've sold numerous parts, body panels, engine parts, turbos...no one has had any issues and if they did, Ive usually helped them out as much as I could.
I don't know if you've been unfortunate enough to have had it damaged in the post or during any handling. That's something I can't control.

Sounds like a group hug is due :P
If no obvious signs of damage and trying things already asked I would suspect actuator adjustment could be needed ;)
