Turbo replacement / upgrade on TD27T
Posted: Tue Jun 12, 2018 7:48 am
Hey all,
hoping for a bit of advise, as the current standard Hitachi H12 is on it's last legs after 315k of service. It's only hitting 5.5 psi, last week still doing 10 psi... Also passes oil.
I've got a second turbo in similar condition, with play but so far no sign of damage, so the plan was to chuck in a $145 bearing and seal kit.
However I've seen this: https://www.scarles.co.nz/collections/t ... et-diesels
Compressor Wheel: 60x44.6
• Compressor Housing A/R .42
• Turbine Housing: A/R .86
• Turbine Wheel: 53x46.23
• Internal Wastegate: 14psi
I don't know what the specs are on the factory HT12, what do you with turbo replacement experience think of the above - look ok for a TD27T (in a Terrano)? I wont be chasing massive gains, but would like a little extra poke, and will be adding a little intercooler.
