sjbrowning7 Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 (edited) Item For Sale:VF28 TurboItem Condition & Description:Started making a strange noise when shutting engine down. Boosts fine but does feel slightly laggy as I think the bearings are not right, however turbo does not have play in the shaft. Comes already rotated with actuator. Could be a real bargain for someone but I have just bought a TD04 now to go on. The turbo will be taken off the car once the td04 arrives and is on. Pictures were only taken a few weeks ago also.Price:£80 open to offers.Pictures:Payment & Shipping Details:Paypal and shipping included in price. Edited May 15, 2014 by sjbrowning7 Quote
turboloon Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 what power would this make on a forged motor withsupporting mods..? Quote
kieran.liggins Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 ive got a forged 1.3 will this be too much lag? td04 is getting boring! Quote
sjbrowning7 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Posted April 20, 2014 My engine isn't forged and I was running just 1 bar with an ebc and the power is ridiculous. I didn't have my car mapped either but with the ebc it was 4k I was hitting full boost so with a good remap I reckon it would be a lot less. Tempted to keep it but I'm just not sure at the minute.

sjbrowning7 Posted April 20, 2014 Author Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) I've put my vf10 back on for now which is very similar to a td04 power wise and it just doesn't compare with the 28. On the right setup I reckon you'd be at over 300bhp. That's a guess though. Same turbo as the vf24 but I can't remember if the actuator is updated or wastegate larger. I can't remember though.

DevonGT Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 ive got a forged 1.3 will this be too much lag? td04 is getting boring! Only slightly more lag then td04. Quote
goldenvtr Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 1 bar on my mx5 and a vf28 made 269bhp and 1.5 bar on my forged 5e made 317bhp. But only lasted 2 track days on that boost before seals went.Awesome turbo but too laggy for a 1.3 Quote
sjbrowning7 Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 If the turbo doesn't sell by Friday I shall be putting it back on. Quote
