Hi,

GTB17/60vk hybrid (basically GTB1756vk with GTB2260vk compressor wheel) should be good for up to 240-250bhp safely. Welded onto stock 1.9TDI manifold ideal upgrade for your Fabia

VNT rod length and stop screw adjustment are required after the turbo is fitted.

Max safe boost 1.8-1.9bar

I'm guessing it won't make that power at only 1.8/1.9 bar. My 1756 does 2.3 bar without any fuss...

you get close to 240bhp at around 2bar with stock GTB1756vk look: http://www.hidden-power.co.uk/2014/08/ 2.3bar is way to far if you ask me and I would never recommend running such boost on GTB17, 60mm compressor wheel let you push more air with lower boost 250bhp @ 2bar with efficient enough injectors will not be a problem

SOLD! there will be 2 more coming in 10 days time or so one can be secured with £50 deposit

I thought the max these turbos could put out was 220-230?

230bhp with stock GTB1756vk but this one is fitted with 60mm compressor wheel...

they can also be made with billet wheel for 270bhp guaranteed but one is £850 delivered

Do you do any exchange on the basis of a Garrett GT1749VA?

This one seems to have little play in the turbo bearings or sign of any contact so should be a good usable turbo once serviced.

 

( However it is quite coked up on the exhaust side which needs to be sorted for it to be fully servicable which I was planning to do)

 

As an honesty point - having just recently tried to split it for cleaning which I haven't done yet, one of the exhaust side studs also snapped the head off

which I was planning to wick out then just weld the washer and nut back on for extraction attempts.

( A bit of a headache but not impossible in the right hands ).

could you please email me few pics? based on the description you have provided I will only be able to offer you £60-£70 for it

 

cheers

Don't worry then, leave it for now. I'll keep it as I'm going to try and seperate the turbo for cleaning and also take care of the stuck bolt.
