Just seen this on Facebook, not really for me as I'm not chasing big power but for those of you that are, maybe it might be of interest Smile

Hybrid turbos are a total waste of money imo, when you can pick up a gt20 for £50 with a bit of bargain hunting...

They sell on ebay, they are just the Chinese copies of common turbos.

dont start making comments like Puggy!!!

you have to find out all the other ID numbers and motors that such a turbo fits....then look around for those.
often sellers dont know what they are selling.

pays also to look for motors that are of less value that have said turbo fitted...

EG a 1749 on a renault is about half the price of the same turbo from a merc!
Wishes for more power...

Exactly what Poggy said, I bought a 60k td05 last night for £36, and it was properly advertised, you've just got to look.
