Are TDI turbos any good for a honda project??
 
I was lookin around the back of my garage were the spare parts are, an I found two garretts, they looked like any other turbo ive seen on a 1.8T, but their from TDIs...Is there any reason why i couldnt use one for a light boost application on my f22??? Their both in good condition, i think the waistgate is there too...thanks all, Chris.

the 1.9 and 2.0 TDI turbos are WAY too small
a 1.8t K03S is quite small too, but i'm using one ayways

the new V10 TT TDI's turbos are made by garrett, i have not seen one off of the truck yet but i am sure they will be big enough
good luck getting your hands on one though, less than 2000 TDi Touaregs are roaming North America

Thanks, but i dont think ill go LOOKING for a diesel turbo if the one i have wont do, which i still would like to be 100 percent sure i cant use it before buying another one. I know its small, but im not planing on turning my motor into a boosted disaster, i just want it to work...So i just wanna know if itll spool good....And how and where the hell can i post pics in this place man!?!?!

dont waste you time, that turbo will be at full boost at idle and die off at 2K rpm

get a diff turbo, there are plenty for sale in the classifieds for cheap, look for a large T3 for a low boost setup
