Rampent Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I need someone who can fit it a turbo who knows what there doing and will be done right. sorry to be rude Sure - in what shape was the old turbo? Did it go bang? assheffieild is right. If the turbo smashed to bits the intercooler would need a good looking at. Normally (esp on that engine) it should be a simple swap over.
