Personally wouldn't use him, many other decent firms out there who can build a good spec'd turbo
Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger
I've heard CR turbos in Hampshire are the bench mark johnny, might be worth a try?

Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger
I can think of 680 reasons why not.

It must be able to be fitted with minimal fuss and be efficient when running boost in the high teens.
I ideally want something that works well with the standard cam.
I currently run a ktr180 which is basically a .48 t25 wheel machined into a t2 front housing with a standard t2 .35 rear, so the next step or two steps up from that would be good.
What about one of these?

Shiit bro that's not good. :/
Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger
Thanks for the help and advice so far :agree:
Im tempted by the saab turbos but seems like there is alot of work needed to get the downpipe side right and its hard to find one that hasnt done a million miles and wont blow up at the first sign of decent boost.

After fitting one of his so called rebuilt turbo's it pissed oil out the turbine and compressor housing, had it examined by another well know turbo builder to find out it was the worse piss poor rebuild ever
After a long 'chat' down the phone he then was telling me there was nothing wrong with it and saying me and the turbo builder didn't know what we were talking about :laugh:
Seem a few other turbo's of his in poor state too
Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger
Second what topcat said. Cr turbos did my t25.service and communication spot on. And price wise not bad. Them or turbo dynamics are good also.
Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger

Mine smoked a wee bit, but that was just the oil that was put on the seals. Is it smoking at the unit or exhaust?
Re: T25 hybrid turbocharger
its smoking a little around the turbo now and then burn off abit tho but i squirted wd40 all over it before fitting it to make sure it was well lubed but smoke poors out like a disco fog machine from exhaust ???
