B230ET Garret 52 A/R vs 42
Im half way through the restoration research and i have hit a snag in terms of what turbo to use.
I have got two turbos that both came from a B230ET, TB03 1987 Exh:48 Com:52 TB0363 1988 or 89 Exh:48 Com:42 Does anyone know anything about these or your opinion on which one to use. Thanks |

If they both came from a B230ET and neither was a modification, i would use the bright shiny, best condition one with the least play in the bearings. I would also dribble some clean engine oil into the oil feed to the bearings and turn the shaft by hand to circulate it so the bearing can have a "pre-soak" in oil before first use on the car.
