Ok guys heres a turbo thats on a grass machine at work. Its on one of our new ransom machines.
Its a 3 cylinder kubota engine, i think its about 600cc (diesel)

I took a few piccys but what made me laugh was just how small it is. I mean its TINY! Its easily the smallest turbo ive ever seen.

I think the 'TD' bit is a give away for it being Mitsubishi. TD025 (2.5 rather than 25?)

So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

If i can get hold of the machine again ill take a comparison piccy. I think its similar to the new mitsy L200 turbo which is also tiny. Possible use for a 998 or too small? I dont think they will notice if i rob it. :)

We used to have a ransomes with a solar engine, but no turbo :( it set off well though and didnt struggle up hills, maybe the turbo is more for economy? Also the colour looks like a hayter lol!

Your right the colour does look like a hayer. Its deffinatly a ransome though. Its a small ride on mower but with all fancy electronics controling the hydraulics instead of normal hand controls.
This is a kubota engine and the first ive seen with a turbo.
