Someone mentioned these at the weekend

There appear to be versions of the TD04 that are comparable with the Garrett Gt17 and Gt20 models.

Very good efficiencies and nice compact design. t2 flanges as well.

Is anyone using one ????

Your not thinking of another engine project are you?

GT2056 looks 1% more efficient at the pressure and air flow we want for full boost, i've probably worked it out wrong though.

The TD04's are fitted to the same Saabs as the GT17's.

Cheep'ish too.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

They are fitted to the more powerfull versions. but they seem to be a very similar fitment, maybe interchangeable.

They are cheaper, but just like the Gt17, there seem to be some cheap chinese copies on the market.

Comes with free engine starting at 99p - only 6 days to run!

Ah, that might explain the "lightly modified" bulkhead

Without going too much of thread , paul what turbo do you think would be best for my set up, 1293, nice head work, 266 and 7.5:1 comp.

that why i was having a good luck down the back of nics engine, but likes said, the saab td04 flanges are very similar to the gt17,

I,ve been looking at these too. The TD04 T15 has a bigger compressor than the GT17 and the Saab boys change it for a T17 or 19 which have evn bigger compressors.

The word on the internet seems to be that the Mitsubishi turbos are more reliable and durable than the Garret GT series.

The flanges are the same, and are easily adapted to the Metro cast iron manifold, if required.

So no real need for a gt20 or 25

Paul, what do you think the limit is for the gt17 psi/bhp
i thought it would be below 200bhp, but now apparently not

We don't really know because we do not have a compressor map.

I would have said that it has a maximum flow of about 25 lb/min in the 15 to 25 psi range, but it could be a little higher than that.

I think Robert is more qualified to comment on the GT1752.

Which mitsy is this turbo run on?
I dont think itll be the new shape L200, i say think because its been a while since i worked on one now.
From what i remember they are a 3 bolt fixing? but the actual turbo is TINY! i thought it would be too small.
I was looking at a turbo from a yaris the other day, wondering if it would fit.

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM
