Post by Damon »

Just curious, My car needs a turbo and I have the jdm td04 that came off my swap. I don't want to go through the hassle of putting an intercooler on since this is the only car I have to drive right now and parts on 15 year old cars tend to break when you touch them.

Not as a bolton. All the other factory turbos, including the TD04s, have the turbo outlet clocked almost horizontal. The factory VF-11 on the SS/TW is clocked close to 45 degrees. The factory charge pipe will not fit.

How does a vf11 plus some cash sound as a swap for your turbo?
