I'm thinking of upgrading my turbo and am trying to avoid dropping a bomb on it.
There are a couple of options I'm looking at. To be honest, these are mostly because of price.
CT Turbo have a $600 and $800 option and Forefront have an $800 option (currently out of stock).
Does anyone have any expereince with these? Also, is it worth avoiding the cheap imports?
I have an '04 D22 ZD30 (210000km) and my current turbo is not broken, but I'm upgrading the exhaust (full of rust holes) and I can 'include' a turbo in the build budget.
I'm not looking for massive gains, but have read all the bad press about these turbos crapping themselves.
I'm also considering an intercooler and remapped ECU down the track.
Is it worth my while to be considering this, or are these turbos not as bad as the stories I've read?
Thanks
