Ive got a reconditioned (just been done for me by Garrett) T3 4x4 Cosworth turbo for sale.

These normally sell for £360 exchange but you lot can have it for £350 outright (the surcharge is usually £175!! :eek :).

Is this the one Iain MacLeod ordered for his Cossie?

Aye it is. It turns out that it was one or more of the cats in his exhaust that had broken down and were blocking the exhaust and so preventing the turbo from spinning up properly :)

How do you know Iain?

He works in my office. We often chat cars, I've been trying to persuade him do some stuff to his cossie...

is this the T3/T4 from the 4x4 cossie? with stage 3 turbine .63 a/r and to4e compressor with .50 a/r 50 trim? i would like some more info... i am looking for a T3/T4 hybrid. i think if i'm going to do this turbo swap i'm going the whole hog... i am looking for a turbo that can flow up to 300hp+ to the wheels at about 15-20 psi boost...

Its a straight T3 not T3/T4. Its got a standard compressor housing (.42), standard exhaust housing (.48), standard compressor wheel and standard 270 degree thrust bearing! Its a standard newly recon turbo!

From me youd be looking at £660 exchange for a stage 3 Cossy turbo with .50 compressor, .63 exhaust, 360, -31 etc!! And thats cheap, they retail at a whopping £1028 exchange!! :eek:

So no mate, youre not going to get a reconditioned turbo to your desired spec for £350 outright ;) :D
