No more expensive than a handbag "about £50" seems the going rate.

I am told you can never have too many handbags, so you may need more than one.
D buys a handbag I buy a camera, all seems reasonable.

Does anybody know exactly what type turbo was fitted fitted on the SP kits?
I know it's a garret and it's probably a t25 fitted to some saabs but I can't see the actual part number with it fitted to the car.
Any help apreciated.
It would really help me to move forward with some confidence.

Looks like something has hit the turbine blades to me. Something small loose in the inlet tract possibly?
Ex 2GR-FE roadster. Sold it. Idiot.  Now Jaguar XE-S 380. Officially over by the bins.

We didn't find anything hiding in any of the hoses but that was our first thought too.

I now need to source a compatible replacement but I don't even know what turbo it is.

Could Matt (performance) help?

So far no luck with Matt.
If he has been moving house then I sympathise.

So TTE turbo are tb2559 and I belive the SP use the same. From a saab 9000. Part no 452083.
They seem to be available on a remanufacture basis but garret don't offer anything that is newer that will bolt straight up. Would like to go ball bearing.
Any T25 flange will work but it's the exhaust side that needs to be the same.
Garret make a gt2859r which I thought would fit but not so sure as it seems to be Nissan specific.
Anyone with any turbo knowledge?

Gap  Turbos with premises in Birmingham offer to repair, replace/ exchange with a reconditioned unit or supply new.
I know nothing of this Company other than from their web site.
Maybe worth a look.
Better luck!

Already phoned gap they couldn't  help me. Essex turbos wanted 350 +vat and didn't have one on the shelf.
Turbo developments have done me one for 250 + vat + 100 surcharge which I'll  get back.
Delivery tomorrow.

Ouch. Lucky you have a friendly mechanic. Any other bits needed?

Good question about other bits.

Yep, I was expecting more tbh.

Most turbo refurbs will come with the needed bits, Ie studs, nuts and gaskets.

It's probably too cheap tbh.
It only comes with 12 month warranty where other places I called offered 24 months.
For 320 including tax and next day delivery you can't complain.

Are they the company from Blackpool ?
Be interested to know what they are like, as I would like to get mine reconditioned at some point.

It's a London based company who said they had plenty on the shelves.

I wanted to upgrade to a gtx2860r but that would not have been a direct fit and would have been three times the price.
Maybe next year.

No idea mate it was third hand. Steve had it before me and someone else previous to that.
I've put maybe 7k miles on it.

another bonus should be if the turbo was indeed damaged recently the existing maps should run no problem  s:) :) s:)
