Hi All,
Ive recently just bought a truck with 180k miles on it and a bit of a gap in its history. At some point in its history it has had an intercooler installed and an aftermarket turbo.
After plenty digging, I’ve identified the turbo as a TD05H-16G. Not sure of the exhaust housing size just yet.
Managed to do some testing on it as it didn’t feel very strong - and the explanation is, now after hooking up an industrial 4” pressure gauge, that we were only peaking and holding at 0.5bar.
I then tested the actuator itself and noticed that it has been spaced with washers between the actuator bracket and the compressor housing. The actuator cracks at 1.0 bar - lovely.
