Hey, I just got some Turbo parts from somebody here on the forum (BB - T25, manifold, intercooler, b13 piping, & injectors) and I want to clean the turbo up, it looks pretty dirty to me. I think the previous owner ran it like that, and he actually got some pretty good performance (around 13.8 I think with no exhaust and s3's) but I would like to clean it up before I use it. Click here for the Turbo parts pictures (http://www.latinominds.com/~domiguy/Turbo) but here is a picture of the Turbo itself:

I know I can use Simple Green on the piping and maybe the manifold (and the intercooler??), but I don't know about cleaning the inside of the turbo itself. Thanks alot for any help.

Jose...

Actually, he ran S4's in his setup. As for the turbo, wish i knew what you could use as to not mess with the internals, sorry!

Actually it was 13.671@103.182 and that turbo was outside in a box in dusty ass arizona for like 3 weeks just run it like that no one is going to see it! LOL

So, does someone know what could be use to clean it ??

I got my BB today, and me to I want to clean it before use ;).

sorry, wouldn't know... just bought my t3/t04e new...

Try going to Turbocity.com you can order a video tape from them and it will show you how to clean/rebuild a turbo

Someone's tell me that i can clean it with brake cleaner,....is that true ???

but I don't know about cleaning the inside of the turbo itself. Thanks alot for any help.

A t25 spins at 125,000 plus rpm at full speed. Do you really think you should do anythng to the inside of that. ONE slight mistake and you just ruined your turbo. Just, clean the outside and be happy you have one.
