Hi everybody as above the turbo on my car is near dead with approx 10mm of left and right movement lol

I want to put a bigger turbo on it and I'm hoping to get 3/350 bhp. I've seen the gt28rs is good for that kind of power.

My question is does it bolt straight on or will I have to do mods to the exhaust/pipe work to make it fit?

Thanks in advance smile

The GT28RS is not a direct fit, requires a 5-stud downpipe, 3" inlet pipe, and new oil feed line. I can supply the GT28RS, I have good prices on all Garrett turbos, however if you are looking for direct fit options then I offer four different hybrid turbo options ranging from 270-400bhp. Let me know your current spec I can advise on the best way forward.

ATM the car is pretty much standard. Apart from a k&n panel filter and a cat back (home made) straight through. I've got a fmic say waiting for me to fit.

What sort of price are the direct fit hybrid?

I can get a gt28rs for bout 700 but I guess it's going to be best part of 850/900 with the other mods that need to be done as well

Also I'm guessing I'll need a uprated fuel pump and map

You will also have to add in a new actuator as the GT28RS is supplied without.

I will PM you with some options based on your current spec.
