General Has anyone swapped out a turbo?

[FlyingTexan]

So I had an accident in my IG where it ingested water. It’s been through a lot of work but have it back. The turbo sounds like it’s making noise when you floor it. Not sure it’s long for this world. Wondering what my options are. They don’t look to be that expensive but I’m not 100% sure on if Grok is giving me accurate part numbers. I’m also curious if there’s other aftermarket/upgrade options available. It’s one thing I don’t really understand. Can you just slap a new turbo on or would it the need computer programming?

Anyone have the stock turbo name/part number?

Don’t have anything to add, but following because this will be interesting!

Sounds like fun ( not ). Speaking of part numbers:

Didn’t buy her to be a pavement princess. Have a great shop but wondering if I have to stick with stock or if I can get a different after market turbo.

Just looked up the part number on google and came up empty. Can you actually buy from Ineos now?

Personally I’d stick with OEM kit for that - staying conservative for durability. OTOH there seem to be quite a few aftermarket ( performance oriented ) turbo options available for the petrol B58 so that definitely seems possible…

As far as I’m aware you need to purchase parts through an Ineos dealer - I’d love to be corrected on this point if we have another option.

As above there are plenty of options to upgrade the B58 turbos.
There's a bit more than just nuts and bolts, the injectors will need to be replaced and the ECU mapped at the very least.
