maddox710 Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 Basically my mates got hold of a k26 of and old rs2, he dont know jack shit about cars and i just offered him £50 and he accepted. It needs a rebuild but what do you guys reckon to that???im picking it up later. Quote
Liam_D Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 £50 is about the going rate for a good conditon second hand turbo buddy. Should only cost you a few hundred pound to get repaired if it only needs a standard repair. Quote
maddox710 Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 i was hopeing to sell it on once its fixed, as i know some1 who rebuilds turbos Quote
TurboTobz Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 They're pretty rare turbos. You should profit nicely but all depends on rebuild costs Quote
maddox710 Posted March 16, 2013 Author Posted March 16, 2013 Turns out its only a k24, just needs new shaft and comp blade. Managed to get it down to £35 and take it home for inspection Quote
TurboTobz Posted March 16, 2013 Posted March 16, 2013 When my k24 went on my old glanza I couldn't source one and any I did find were priced around £550 had it got an internal gate? Quote
maddox710 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 No mate, no actuator or flapper in sight turbos look so much better with them might keep it for £35 and hold on to it. Plus makes nice paper weight Quote
TurboTobz Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Man I wish I had another k24 kit:-My old bay Quote
maddox710 Posted March 17, 2013 Author Posted March 17, 2013 Looks awesome dude, what power/boost did you run? Quote
TurboTobz Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 It made 220bhp at 1bar on hks fcon pro v gold it made 257 and held the top 1/4 mile in the country for an ep for a while I believe, this was before my ownership though I brought it and it had no management Quote
