Which turbo Should i use?

[tmarx]

Hi all. I am getting a lot of contradictory advice from the turbo shops in AUS, not that i blaim them. I nderstand that they all want to make a sale but i need a shove in the right direction. So which is better AXT or TURBOGLIDE? I drive a 99 105 1HZ. Thanks THEO CAPE TOWN

Well I don't really know what to tell you about any thing that new but I am running an AXT setup on my 3B and all I can say is WOW! I hear alot of good things about the turboglide setups but here in Canada we don't get our hands on anything toyota that sports a diesel that new. Diesel toys went out in the late 80's for us and I 'm still waiting for them to bring the Import diesel back.

a custom job with a turbo dialed ot your driving style is the best option...
cheers
BTW, i really like the Safari kits...

Just remember don't get any turbo with an exhaust port that is too big for the job unless you have all week to wait for the thing to spool up.

Not in Safari, exist in Turbo Glide and AXT Turbo.

I just bought a 99 100 series yesterday and will be turboing it soon.I will not use turboglide (they are 50kms away) but will check Safari,AXT Denco including there air/fluid intercooler plus others.Hopefully I will turbo my hj75 at the same time.

Safari kit:
much more extensive including a new exhaust manifold, uses a Garrett T3/T4 water-cooled hybrid turbo. Around $3100-$3200AU IIRC

AXT:
Similar to Safari, inludes manifold, water-cooled Garrett. I can't remember model specs or price, i have the info at home.

Turboglide:
About AU$500+ cheaper than Safari, used stock manifold, Garrett GT28 turbo with .86 turbine AR. The install is much simpler since you use the stock manifold and the directions did not mention a water fittings so i assume it is not water-cooled. I have asked turboglide to confirm that it is a ball-bearing turbo and asked if they offer a water-cooled version.

All kits have adjustable wastegates.

I like the idea of a ball-bearing turbo but don't like that it is not water-cooled. How much benefit do you think the safari and AXT manifolds make? Worth the extra cost?
