Philsips hybrid turbo ibiza TDI

[Ibiza 130 tdi]

I'm 99% sure Turbo Dynamics dont accept 2nd hand turbo's anymore. You can only buy new turbo's from them. You cannot make a turbo of your own hybrid through them anymore....

Yes thats true i'm looking at doing it now. I'm going to be using a new unit i think as second hand 150 turbos are like rocking horse ****. I'm still undecided on who to use though. CR turbo's have good reviews and excellent prices, but Turbo dynamics are a bigger company and again have a great reviews but are very expensive, i'm looking at £1054+vat from TD, and CR are £895 plus Carriage plus VAT. Any reccomendations?

hi phil i love the car, cant wait till mine is like it, i have a 2003 yellow ibiza 130pd but its pretty standard at the moment jus got some 17in rs4 alloys, im getting the cupra kit, miltek exhaust etc, i like the sound of the hybrid turbo, whats the differance from a standard one? saving my pennies to do all the body work then il recon the engine as its done 134k and do all the engine mods next year, i think mine is fast now, cant wait till its done

theres not to much difference, the externals are basically the same bar the actuator that opens and closes the vanes inside the turbo, everything else inside is almost all different!

they mill out the impellor housing after spliting the turbo and bore it till the vnt 20 (v6) impellor fits nicely, they blue print the internals so theres optinum air flow and they cut back the exhaust turbine blades to allow it to speed up quicker, the bearing is replaces with a 360 degree hardened floating bearing instead of the 270 degrees bearing so its nearly bullet proof, they offer warranty so i say if you go ahead with it then tune the nuts out of it, 1.9 TDI 130/150/160s can handle the stress easy enough!


Mines now for sale in the Seats for sale section if anyone wants to take over from me, not it was sorned for almost a year so its only done 1000 ish miles since last MOT with a milteck straight through pipe and a hollow back box!
