gt28rs turbo
« on: 13 September 2013, 19:44 »
My mate is giving me a gt28rs turb. He said it does need rebuilding so will get beach buggies to have a lookie at it. Anyway my question is. Do i need to change the manifold for it to fit or can i fit it on the same k03 manifold? Other thing is, whats the max power you can get from one of these?

Correct me if im wrong, but..... A GT**** 1.8t build is surely going need a fairly serious build / spec?

Rods
pistons
manifold
down pipe
injectors & maf
fuel pump
etc etc !?

Yeah, it's definitely not a case of just sticking it on, its not a cheap conversion.

Depending on your current spec, I'd say set aside £1500 for it.
