How can i tell if my engine is forged?


Recommended Posts

What is the easiest way to tell with out taking the head and everythink off? Im running td04 at 253bhp mapped to 1bar which i think is quite high for 1bar on a stock engine i have seen them around 220-240

Its just a re-condistion turbo that needed running in, il take the sump off and that a picture but i wouldnt of thought no one would have mentioned it wasnt forged but it just seems really high bhp for 1bar i dont know what esle that could have been done to be at 252bhp

could be because they are newer? holding compression less and have 2 years less of a bollocking on them.
