Hello Guest, welcome to the initial stages of our new platform!
You can find some additional information about where we are in the process of migrating the board and setting up our new software here
Thank you for being a part of our community!
For the record, my turbo ended up being a weird amalgamation of bits.
.48 Cossie exhaust.
Ford SVO chra
0384 compressor housing.
I bought the turbo from RS classics, and it ended up being garbage.
I then found someone local who was going to have their brand new CHRA rebuilt with a t04 compressor, so I gave them the core chra I had here, and paid the difference for his new chra.
Put my housings on the ford chra and Im in business.
In its new home:
dear lord, are those copper nuts or are they just coated? if copper could you possibly link me to where you found them? appreciate it, amen
T I have a chap local ish to me who breaks Cossie bits down in Gosport near Portsmouth so will be checking him out for a TB0384 soon.

VW aircooled exhaust nuts, possibly Bug Pack. $5 for 8, 18 months ago.
Edit: I see JVL beat me to it.... By about half an hour.
You think you can scare up a Cossie airbox for "non-bend-them-over" price from your local guy?
Gary seems to like a weeeeeeeeeeeeee bit more squids than they typically go for in a normal private sale...
Let me snows.
Not Gary Z no, another chap with two that he's just taken on to break for spares. I'll enquire and see what his prices are. I'm on a few Cosworth groups and they're fetching ?150-300 most days.
Annoyingly most are coming with shafts that are buggered or have lots of play. I aim to get one rebuilt, new 360 beating, actuator, seals and all at Turbo Dynamics near me.
Of course we all drill and tap the manifold to M10 as a matter of course, don't we?
Is that Vince? in Daventry?
And wait! Airfilter box, I was asking..I've picked them up a while ago at 20-25 squids.
One thing to think of is grabbing a YB down pipe for harvesting the first section wif the conical seat and that big fat flange...and a waste gate actuator...(just snagged 2 today off your Flea bay)
For ****s and giggles, I disassembled the cossie turbo I got from the uk today. The turbine shaft was so worn, it looks like sand went through the turbo.
I have to fit a compressor bypass valve/BOV if I want to use the Cossie T3, right? As there's no CBV built in. I hear of people with compressor stall when going from 13C-T3 as it has no CBV..

If you drive without a BOV you get this lovely turbo chatter... On the other hand the turbo doesn?t like it a lot and will get damaged if it is not fitted with a special shaft (maram, polygon). I drove without BOV for a while. Sound during gear change is phenomenal, from
time to time the AMM got mean --> lambda light on --> idle started to get crazy...
Installed a bailey DV26, problem solved.
