So, i've got this TD04HL 13G volvo superturbocharger. If anyone wants to tell me more about what i've got here i'd love to know. The wheel is nice and tight, it spins freely, so know the bearings are good (if it does have bearings and not journals?).

Is there a way I can see if the seals are good before I put it in so I'll know if I need to change the seals?

At what RPM I should expect boost to start building and when will i get full boost on a factory D16Z6? Only mods worth mentioning is the port and polish,

What manifold should i get? thinking i may install AC so those options would be sweet

Where do i get the coolant hookup to cool the unit?

 

As usual. Photos, wheel measurements wheel profile... That's the only way to even phatham a guess...

 

I would take a guess and say it is a TD04 something

Did you pull it off of a Volvo? Do you happen to know which model/year?

phat ham, you say?

#1 easiest way to get the answer to "what is it?" for like, 99% of OEM turbos.

 

I have no idea i didn't pull it myself. Go away NAR you're a tool and a half

 

More like fat fingered... Fathom is what I meant to type

 

It's a TD04L-13G

Journal bearing
Water cooled

Compressor
Inducer 40.56mm Exducer 55.98mm

Turbine
Inducer 46.88mm Exducer 41.18mm

Here's the compressor map



To convert from CFM to Lb/min you multiply by .069 which gets you a maximum capability of 25-26lb/min or 250-260hp

 

wantboost you're the best

 

No one knows what motor you have, so we can't tell you how to hook up the water lines.

No you can't change "the seals" on them to test. At that point buy a new unit.

Do not get a "ramhorn" at all. There's no point with something this old and small.

Slow down..There's a reason you got it cheap/free... ( it means they couldn't usr it either :-) )

 

Replace the unit over a $50 seal replacement kit? I suppose i should go with a manifold that allows me to use air conditioning. I like old and small, hence my 1995 EJ2 civic

Its got a Z6 btw.

 

If you think its "just" a seal replacement on those volvo turbos, then please, be my guest. I'll let you have at it, sir. I'll let eBay decide the fate of the fateful..
Not a few hours ago you didn't know what the hell you even had in your hands. Now you're going tell others exactly what's going to cost to fix as though you built the thing yourself all of a sudden.

No, no... go ahead. I'll wait..

 

You can learn CPR in a couple hour class too buddy!

D-series, the better honda forum, already told me to go thru G POP for the seals.

If you're such a wise person, give me a lesson on what i've gotta do with this volvo td04hl 13g. Put up or shut up.

 

Request granted.. Shutting up and watching with popcorn... Why help with such an attitude as yours.

 

why have an attitude with an unhelpful *******? hmm

 

Because you, my friend are sheer entertainment. (especially when GPOP will have the facilities to do the other things that need to be done to ensure its health)...

My word.. Such FIRE from a young Thundercat!

 

OP is literally biting the hand that feeds him...

 

That dude did nothin' to help me i owe him no respect. If you notice, i thanked Wantboost!

 

The Shodan can teach you all you need to know about Turbocharging...Or you can go to DSO.

 

I asked him to put up or shut up, its clear to me that he'd rather be a jerk than actually helpful.

On the other hand, thank you Caoboy for helping me.

 

Guess what? Me too!

LOCKED.

Act like a spoiled brat and you'll be treated like one.

 

I leave the internet for a few hours and look what happens ol
