gonna be stripping my turbo over the weekend as it has quite a bit of play in the shaft,even if it has done less than 500 miles!!! anyways i want to make sure its a full fat 19t and not anything else!! so to save me the agro of searching, i thought i might just post up a cheeky little thread,you know, so you boys can give me the specifications im looking for with the added bonus of any help and tips ;)

the inducer size should be 46mm, exducer size 58mm. Anything smaller than a 19t will have an exducer size of 56mm (18t has an inducer size of 45mm so not much difference that end) Image

Are you sure you are getting enough oil pressure / flow to the turbo for it to fail so soon ?.
