starletburkie Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 tongs hybrid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Just found the pm's yeah tongs hybrid. Thanks very much for the help, how much would you say it's worth it has very minimal side to side shaft play and none in and out (when on the car and oil pressure in turbo there is no play at all) and it has no crack at all on the wastegate.

micky boy Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Hmm going off your for sale thread pics its look more like a Fensport hybrid turbo as its got cutback exhaust blades!!!..Where as with the Tongs it never had that just a larger compressor wheel!Could fine well be a Toyturning hybrid its hard to tell!!!If you type in google toyturning ct9 hybrid turbo it dose look more like one of them!Link to a hybrid ct9 turbo thread deffo looks like a toytuning hybridhttp://www.toyotagtt...ons-King-Thread Edited November 2, 2012 by micky boy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 were the earlier tongs hybrids not different to the new ones? If anyone could confirm which one it is that would be great so I can update my for sale thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Having a look at this toy tuning one, it looks very similar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Just looked through old pm's and looked at some pictures and it looks more like a tongs RB spec rather than tongs GT spec? Edited November 2, 2012 by steve-gers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 (edited) Deffo a toytuning hybrid turboI would rather have a toytuning hybrid to be honest the tongs turbo was very cheaply made to be fairTongs turbo had standard 260 degree thrust bearing standard turbin shaft all it had was a larger compressor wheel thats itWhere as with the toytuning hybrid it had a uprated turbin shaft (cutback blades) larger compressor wheel 360degree thrust bearing Edited November 2, 2012 by micky boy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Na the RB spec was a stock ct9 with a ported wastgate thats it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
steve-gers Posted November 3, 2012 Author Share Posted November 3, 2012 Ok so definately a toytuning? Just so I can update my forsale Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 (edited) Deffo mate thats why its still in good condition people who have owned a tongs its only lasted a year befor it started smoking!!!! might of been lucky and got alot longer out of it but they wernt the best of turbs tbh that my point of view anyways lol Edited November 3, 2012 by micky boy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MARC MOSS Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Had my tongs for 5 years now running at 1.2bar never had a problem with it ... And definately never had any issues with smoke As for my speed vision before lol what a load of complete shite Quote Link to post Share on other sites
micky boy Posted November 3, 2012 Share Posted November 3, 2012 Had my tongs for 5 years now running at 1.2bar never had a problem with it ... And definately never had any issues with smoke As for my speed vision before lol what a load of complete shiteHaha you go no where in your car though lol From what i've heard from a few mates up this way the Tongs hybrid has only lasted so many miles befor they started smoking! I've ripped one to bits a few month back and theres nothing more in one then a stock CT9 other then the compressor blade and larger wastgate pennie!..I could bore the compressor houseing out on a ct9 get a larger compressor blade get it balanced for the cost of £80 at the most!Then the cost of the rebuild kit!..The same go's for the Blitz K1 hiflow turbo that has a ct12 compressor blade standard ct9A turbin shaft other then that its just a stock CT9A with blitz on the side of itPluss they arent even a hybrid they are a hiflow turbo a hybrid is when you change the internals of a turbo!
