Does anybody know or have both these turbos on hand to compare?
My TD27 has a stock HT-12 and I know the newer TD27's GT2052s is a straight swap but I'm considering putting a slightly larger GT2252s from a BD30 on my td27.
The GT2252s does not have a water circuit and I was thinking about using the GT2052s center housing (CHRA) on the slightly larger turbo. I have neither turbo on hand but I'm pretty sure the shafts and wheels would swap over since they use the same bearings. I guess my big question is are the seal plates the same size or can they be swapped over too?
To clarify, I want to use td27 water cooled center housing with BD30 wheels in a BD30 turbo.
Alternatively, if the seal plates do fit or if only the compressor seal plate swaps... it begs curiosity to other combinations like a td27 side and BD30 compressor side...
None of these parts are local to me so I thought I'd ask before I throw cash all over the globe.
