Hi people,

wondering if anyone can answer my query?

What is a better turbo the Original VL Turbo or a VG30 Turbo?

I know they are both referred to as "T3's", but does anyone know if there is actually any difference between the two, like perhaps compressor wheel sizes, ???, i dunno, u tell me???


Any help greatly appreciated

I think the vl one might have a steel exhaust wheel where as the vg30 one is ceramic. you can get a vg30 one ball bearing though and they might be a little bigger they can make around 190 rwkw not sure on the vl one though

Thanks for the reply meggala.

Wouldnt the ceramic wheel make it spool quicker?

But because of this it wont run as higher boost as a steel wheel turbine??

What would the limit of it be, before its effiency drops, 14psi or below that??

Cheers

vls had the steel wheels and non ball bearing.
ceramics should be good for 10psi. depending on age and condition of it etc
