WFF: Small turbo
 

I'm helping a couple of guys look for a turbo for a project they're working on here at Iowa State University. In a nutshell, the project consists of turbocharging a 0.9L, 3 cylinder, Lombardini diesel engine. Unfortunately, since it's a school project, the budget is zero so I'm hoping that somebody has turbo collecting dust which they'd be willing to part with. A 9B or 13G is what came to mind initially but I'm open to other possibilities as long as it has a wastegate. I'm willing to pay the shipping costs out of my own pocket simply because I think the end result is going to be awesome. I would also be more than happy to list the turbo donor as a sponsor of our 1/4 Scale Tractor Pulling Team as this project is a something which evolved out of another team project.

I have a t25 and a 14b, the 14b needs a rebuild for sure, and the wastegate doesnt look like it will close all the way.. Im not sure about the condition of the t25, but i do know that the fins arent in the greatest shape, and it has quite a bit of shaft play. PM me of you want em.

Thanks for the offers, Charlie. I think I have a line on something quite small but I'll let you know either way next week.

If they were serviceable I'd offer up my wonderfully small t15, but it's shot.

Re: WFF: Small turbo
 

Can you shoot me some more information about that? It turns out I read my information e-mail wrong and the engine displacement is 0.9L, not 1.9L.

Thanks

I go to Iowa State University. He knows this, I was looking for a more specific location. Thanks though

Re: WFF: Small turbo
 

The engine is currently in the old barn area of I Ed II but the build will take place in the Davidson shop.

Hit me up if you need any help. I'll keep an eye out for a turbo as well.

Will do, thanks!

Thread can be closed, I picked up the T15 from Sean.

Thanks
