How about telling us what the car is and which mods, if any, you have? And what kind of car you're looking to build?
Re: What new turbo?
sorry peeps, well being in the mr2 forum it's a mr2, obviously a turbo and it's a mk2.
Mods are:-
De-cat
Performance air filter
HKS FCD
Manual boost controller
And I believe that's it engine side.
As for what I want from the car....well cost is more of the issue as it's the daily driver so what ever is most economical.
Cheers

Well, this would generally imply you have a rev1 or rev2.
Therefore I expect you have a CT26 turbo that has let go. A replacement CT26 is the easy a cheapest option. A CT20b conversion is a nice mild upgrade while maintaining OEM parts and is probably the option I'd suggest for you as the cost is still relatively low.

One what? CT26 or CT20b?
(Do NOT get a single-entry CT20, it won't fit)Re: What new turbo?
No it's a direct replacement, CT26 with manifold.....
....Re: What new turbo?
200 should be a ct20b, I'd say 150 for a 26. But supply and demand etc etc

Where do you guys get new turbos from? I've found Fensport to give a good deal, as they'll give you £150 for your old turbo. So £480 for a reconditioned/new CT26. Good or bad?
