Volvo TD04HL Turbine Comparison

This video compares three of the "size 7" turbines found on Volvo FWD turbo cars in the 90's and early 2000's. Since these are commonly used as upgrades for turbocharged Volvo Redblock cars, I compare the pros and cons of each turbine, and measure the outlet flange size. We also have some more bonus content at the end of this video!

Bingley for the catch 😂👍

The angle flange one can be cut off a a V band welded on. Makes it easier to install then. Do one from the T3 range from the early 760 and 740 turbos next!

Unfortunately, I don’t have those turbos on the shelf to compare them! And truthfully, I don’t know much about the T3 range turbos.
