hi guys , does anyone run a TF035 turbo on there NA6 ? what are your thoughts ? good or bad , my thoughts are ,it should spool up quick ,be fun low boost daily driver ,, appreciated your input ,,thanks

I'm no turbo expert but the TD04 is the larger turbo right? I have one (albeit slightly modified) off a T5 Volvo. On my NB it produces 163rwkW on 7psi, very smooth delivery with practically no lag.

I can't imagine a smaller turbo though...I assume it will practically be on boost all the time. Check with Nitro Dann - I recall him fitting a car with a really tiny turbo just for laughs.

thanks for reply

anybody here use the tf035 ? turbo is off a Subaru forrester / also on 2.8diesel Mitsubishi .. I do believe its the same as the mighty car mods guys used on there white NA .. could be wrong though

Interetsed in how you managed that Apu with 7psi?

Nitro Dann tubular manifold, Volvo TD04 turbo with WRX compressor wheel.

a lot of reading here about td04 compressor flow maps ken.may be usefull.

Apu also has water/methanol injection, and that reading was on the Mania dyno which is known for being a little enthusiastic, regardless it has an efficient setup that hauls arse.

True...but water-meth produces an extra 13kw, so it reads 176rwkW on the Mania dyno.

Speaking of which...would be good to organise a dyno day some time!
