After 458,000 kms mine might be on its way out. I am seeing some black oil dripping out of my intercooler on the cold side. Does not seem to be using oil, but I am thinking the end is near. Anyone upgrade and have one collecting dust that I could purchase?

 

For cheap!

 

I have a 03 turbo, its in rough shape. I would contact Rob (winksdiesel), he might have one. If you want a new aftermarket turbo, I can probably you help out. I have a S366/0.91/73 T-4, new available. Going to put that onto the 10 truck. Must have sold most of my stuff this year already. Some good buys on turbos, with the dollar above par to the USD.

Wow, that turbo lasted a long time 458000km.

 

id consider it but i need a turbo to replace mine, of course your looking for one now, not in a week or two i assume. Unless mike has a good single for me to slap into my truck this weekend...?

 

You are more than welcome to the 03 turbo, I was just going to get it rebuilt. We can do an exchange if you want. I'll just get yours rebuilt. Holset is a pain to get parts from for the electronic stuff. Probably can get a device just to turn that part off and run an aftermarket turbo.

A S360 or S362 will work decently. I can get those pretty easy. Garrett has a nice turbo packages for replacing the stocker

I have to buy a GT3788R next week, I kinda want the third gen compressor housing, but it affects the air tubing position and air inlet ducting.
