Default Re: Where to find used TD05's/Intercooler?

Ross, Weisco, and CP are all good pistons. Before you commit to remove and replace pistons, you may want to read about what this entails. If you are not experienced with engine rebuilds, then you should probably let a shop do it. Another option could be to just purchase a used TT engine with OEM pistons.

Out of curiosity, what are your goals for the car? Why did you choose TD05 turbos in ther first place? Also, I'm curious about how you were going to tackle the traction issue.

BTW I am getting those pistons and rods. I am going to get a machine shop to assemble the block. Then I will do the rest.

only 500hp!? damn wish i could put it like that lol. my advice to you would be to keep the boost down till you get the suspension upgraded...your lookin at springs, shocks, swaybars, strutbars....at the least. tackle one thing at a time
