kingkong1300 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 (edited) Hello guys. Can someone give me some advise please, I have just been offered a cos worth t34 turbo fully rebuilt with carbon seal for £500, does this sound about Wright money. I've looked on net and there seems a lot of range in pricing. It is someone I know so I know it will be ok. It's for a draw through system on a Gsx1325.

Gixer1460 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 No such animal as a T34 - that was a Russian WW2 Tank! - Its probably a T3 / T4 hybrid. It'll be big, it'll probably be 'laggy' and why the carbon seal as the Cosworth installation wouldn't have needed it? £500 sounds a bit spendy to me for something that may not suit a bike. 1 Quote Link to comment
Arttu Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 On the other hand you probably will have hard time finding rebuilt or new carbon sealed turbo for less money. But yes, definitely a good idea to investigate a bit further if the sizing is suitable for your application. No point to pay for something that doesn't do what you want. 1 Quote Link to comment

Apparently there is a t34 and a t35 its a cosworth thing.yes gixer1460 It is a hybrid, it's a t3 with a t4 compressor housing. I do have the option of running it as a t3 with 48/48 instead of the t34 48/63 but still with the carbon seal that might be a better option. ?? Quote Link to comment
Arttu Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Well, if it's going to be a draw through then you need carbon sealing. Can't say from top of my head if T3/T4 will be too big for your engine. But as general note, if it's a drag bike you can probably use relative large turbo without too much problems. Quote Link to comment
kingkong1300 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 Ok this is my other option. T34 (cosworth name) so a t3/t4 with 48 /48 housings on each side so should eliminate some lag issuse, any opinions/feedback would be great fully received chaps Quote Link to comment
