I have a chirp at idle, that if I grab the serp belt tensioner arm with vice grips while running and remove the smallest amount of pressure.. it stops chirping? The tensioner pulley was replaced within the last year..

Wait till the rats find it.  Or a raccoon.

I had the same chirp, until I put in new bushing and seals , and replaced the tensioner in the serp tensioner. I had to replace the arm as well because mine was well worn... That chirp is the tensioner arm grinding away at the bushing..... You can find all the parts on idparts.com

***e. Well it is intermittent, weird.

Should I just replace everything, like the arm as well? or take chances and say its gonna be 'arrrry

Everybody's new favourite turbo!!

Considering the price for a brand new one (they go for about $850 everywhere I've seen) is only juuust over double a rebuild for an old K24/T3 it's a damn good deal.  They're a bit smaller than the K24/T3 too so faster spool times.

Decided on a manifold yet?

[RabbitJockey]

jeremy u shold sell me your 88 for 850$ to fund your new turbo.

Not yet, still in the planning stages. I have a T3 here that will makes it way on to the engine to replace the k03 first..

great thread, had fun reading it. I was a little dissapointed you didnt go full electric, as it would have been a more helpful read for me as that is what i am in the middle of.

where did you learn all the pump stuff? i came across this thread searching for pump DIY's on how to upgrade my 10mm pump.

I was gonna go full electric.. Looking at buying several full running TDI's for $600 a piece in the near future.. So the coupe and the 88 might get some LOVING. The coupe will probably go MTDI, but the 88 will more than likely keep the hydro clutch and go full electric. Depending on whether I find more Rover pumps or not .

The pump stuff? All self taught and some very appreciated help from 410 within the last 1.75 years
