Zetec turbo - Turbo

Postby jdfiesta on Mon Jan 02, 2006 6:30 pm

I've been offered a turbo off a renault 21 turbo. im thinking this could be a good choice for my future zetec turbo build as they are designed to run a 2ltr anyway. as far as i know it's a t3 size turbo.
anyone agree?

i think i know what you mean when you say they wont go striaght on. the compressor housing needed rotating to get the outlet to point correctly, and i need to source an exhaust elbow/get one fabricated
