Title: K-14 Non-rebuildable ???
Post by: stewardc on April 26, 2007, 11:07:00 am

Well, neither turbo rebuilder here can get any parts for a K-14....apparently it's a throw-away. Of well, I guess I'll have to use my T3 Garrett :roll:  :wink:

It's leaking oil and one bearing is questionable.

I may be ready to part with mine in a few weeks. It only has a damaged compressor wheel, somewhere around 40-50k, or so I was told.

Giles sent my K14 out for rebuild. No issues at all.

Once again, no parts or rebuilds for K-14. Only K03,04 and 06.

So, who cares. It's just really an excuse to use a bigger turbo anyway. :wink:
