205 Gti 2 Litre 8V Turbo

[aarontrophy 26]

I have the turbo 8v out of the 406 Sri in my 205 it has stage 3 ported n polished head has flowed and has the 205 gti 1.9 camshaft in it.

 

Been thinking about getting the turbo rebuilt with t28 internals. As many people say a t28 won't fit.

Is tht true?

 

I also want to update the camshaft is there 1 out there that ppls like? Kent, piper cat cam etc

 

I'm also running the vts 2 litre gearbox am thinking maybe a 1.9 box would be better?

 

Any good ideas ?

Hi, I have the 406 turbo engine in my 205.

I have a hybrid T25 / T28 and the spool time is very quick, its very different to the T25 ! Well worth the money !

I didn't realy find anyone that sold a cam shaft for my engine, so I got one custom ground from spoox motorsport, I then bought a head with one in already, so I have one spare if you can't find anything .

I think PeterT may have a cam grind to suit a Turbo. If you drop him a PM Im sure he will suggest something and his prices are spot on. The T28 rebuild sounds like the way to go as far as I know, Im a big fan of using the smallest turbo required on a motor like yours.

 

Do you have a build thread?

I have been in to 205 for many years now but only a member on this site for a month I have a lot of pictures to build a thread I will get round to it soon

 

I will contact PeterT

Theres someone on the 406oc forum whos fitted a t28 internals in to the standard turbo exhaust housing but needs to modify the oil return pipe. not sure if hes done it yet or not

Jus to make it clear hes fitted the turbo but not modified the oil return pipe to fit the turbo yet

Cat Cam's do a cam for this engine as well, Mind I'd get a decent ECU on there first as this will gain more than anything
