paddy Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Anyone tried one of these before? It's a Chinese td04 core, I paid £90 delivered for it thought I'd give it a try instead of risking buying another smokey td04, anyone use one? Any problems with it? The quality looks good Quote Link to post Share on other sites
5T4R7ET N/A Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Would a rebuild not have been better?Might as well give this a go and see what happens. I know some cheap stuff can be ok, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Worth the try at least you can come on here and give it a review. Either folk then have a cheap way to make an almost brand new TD04 or everyone knows to avoid in the future. Regardless for 90 quid you've either learned an inexpensive lesson or opened the door for a cheap repair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RobSR Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Which one was it? There are a couple of Asian turbo companies that make decent replacements Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TimD Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Would have grabbed one of these for my TF035 but it doesn't seem like they do one for the Subaru variant. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
