Don't sell it. Looks a tidy motor. Mines been in the garage for a few months now, put it away until you get some motivation!

HI Charlie,

Sounds like turbo to me so get it sorted mate, I would have it away to turbo technics on exchange basis then you are sorted or just get them to do it anyway if no exchange with them, at least you know its right when it comes back because they test them properly.

Think the compressort housing seal is included? Other gaskets that might be needed are turbo to manifold gaskett, wastegate gasket. Mine hasnt arrived yet but going to give it a good look over when it does. You will also need some very small circlip pliers. Stripped my t3 last night, go carefull as a lot of the bolts are siezed solid and you cant get a ring spanner or socket on many of them, especially the exhaust turbibe housing bolts.

Make sure that you have access to a set of very small circlip pliers to get the main bearing circlips out

Right well at idle you don't really get much smoke but when I pull away just normal not booting it I get a little bit but if I boot it slow down then carry on it pumps out a fair bit lol( is it possible to have the turbo seals just go on the exhaust side ? )


this is classic symptoms on T3 especially if its unknown and done starship miles,

go for the seals *Yes*
