Gt2554R

[PuntoGTturbo]

Didnt want to post this on the car parts for sale bit as it isnt ready to be sold as yet and Im not sure as to how much I want so offers people but no silly offers!..

Anyway Me and my brother are looking to get a bigger turbo soon as my brother has finally got a decent job so he can now put some money into the car . Not sure how much I want for it to be honest, may even keep it as spare but if anyone is interested would consider selling sometime in April.

Ive done around 15,000miles with this turbo and made 248.2Bhp@19psi, not sure how much the previous owner has done but Superman (Dan) may know and I think he has got the reciept for it aswell? Holds boost perfectly, I run it at 19-23psi and pulls very hard after 4rpm and even harder after that. Very little in & out play and it isnt smoking, took the elbow off and the seals are fine. Only a couple of pictures, will check the wastegate for cracks but I don’t think it should have any. Could be a good turbo for a car other than the punto as well..

You made 248hp with the standard manifold?

[PuntoGTturbo]

Sure did mate

[DR_EVIL]

That's good. Didn't know it was possible. Guess it looks more
Restrictive than it is.

[PuntoGTturbo]

Oh yeh, Ive heard a couple of gts making near 300hp on with the standard manifold

so whats next GT28R, GT28RS, GT2871R?

This may be of some use to you mate

For sale on behalf of a friend, a turbo he bought to fit to his car but now needs the money instead.

It is a 2560R / T28R, basically a T28 with a ball bearing core. Was apparently previously fitted to an S13, to fit to an S14/a the core would need to be rotated slightly or the oil drain modified.

There is a little bit of play in the shaft, but far from unreasonable (I've seen new turbos with more play than this has).

Overall the condition is used but there is no reason why it should not work.

Offers around £300.

We are looking to get a 2560r

isnt in and out play bad? and side to side not so bad?

[PuntoGTturbo]

Erm not sure really, from when I first bought the car it's had very little play, but it's been spot on as it's made me good power. Would be nice if someone could answer that.

well a quick google says slight side to side play is fine on a dual bearing turbo (normal) but in and out is not good, is it deffo in and out rather than side to side?
