td5 turbo upgrade
hi guys

i know you can get hybrid vnt/vgt turbos for the td5 but am i right in thinking there is a turbo from another vehicle that can be fitted or made to fit
also can anyone remeber back a few years ago about a tomb raider td5 that had been rebuilt into a 2.8 td5 ?

any one have any info on this is the engine still in use or did it die ?


kind regards steve 2015 2.2 tdci hardtop xs
3.2 conversion DONE 238bhp and 707nm torque and thats just the start ;-P
hybrid turbo in build -done ready to fit

That was Lara on the D4x4 forum who did the 2,8 conversion.


I've heard that Merc sprinter (5 cylinder) turbos will do the job,.,,, you need the early non electronic turbo.
