td05 turbo swap 700

'87 740T
Well the head is off to be re-built and plan on finding a new turbo.

Currently have a TD05-12B (MFB 49178-03000) with a turbine that has touched down one too many times...also shaft play.

Would rather swap than re-build if I can.

There are lots of TD-05's out there from other cars. What can I use with the stock wastegate/exhaust housing.

Are there any, which if used, will exceed the max flow measurement on my AMM?

Thanks
Matt

td05 turbo swap 700

pretty much only the volvo td05 will fit, as most other popular mitsu turbos are td05-H's which have a bigger turbine wheel (This is what most dsm turbos come with). you might consider converting to a garrett t3, they flow a bit more than the volvo td04 and td05's found on the rwd cars, and are cheap and plentiful.
