I think he meant a plug for his turbo for sale

Turbo Technic's hybrids, in my opinion and many others (Mark Edwards used one of their hybrids) are regarded as one if not the best hybrids out there. I have there stage 1 (for now ) they only do 2 stages. I had to get my CT26 reconditioned so i went for one of their hybrids. I was and still am very happy with it, until i have run my engine in them maybe i might swap it for a bigger/better turbo

oopps, mis read the post


How much did it cost ya from TT?

[GT Rich]

Well stage 1 cost me £820 in exchange of my old turbo. They paid for all the courier fee's inc deliver and pick up of my old turbo 2 days later after i had got my old unit off. I just called to say it was off and they picked it up the next day. Stage 1 gives you 360 degree trust baring, steel shaft and blades, enlarged compressor housing. I couldn't get to much out of the sales man on what exactly they actually do. All he said was they work there magic and it should hold 25-26psi all day long. From what i remember when i ordered it it had T3/T4 internals in it. TT are also one of the select few in the country to full rebuild and be certified by Garrett turbos.
I also called Turbo force and from what i can remember there stage 2 or 3 was the equivalent of TT's stage 1.

Give them a call (01604705050) and ask for some more details as it was a while ago when i ordered mine so there spec may have become even better or have more stages. I know Mark Edwards worked closely with TT to get his CT26 hybrid.

Right peeps, Here it goes.


For a rebuild with stage 1 :
They machine the housing
new compressor and turbine wheels(steel)
new shaft
new barings

This is good for 16 - 18psi or 1.25bar

COST £480+VAT


For a rebuild with stage 2 :
As above

This is good for up to 28psi or 1.9 Bar

COST £560+VAT




All turbos come with 12months gaurentee, and all internal parts are garrett.

[GT Rich]

TT's warranty is 2 years i think. Just so you know
