T34 Turbo with cossie turbine housing and 360° thrust bearing. Has the correct figment for the OE 21 Turbo exhaust manifold (see the manifold flange). Turbine housing is a .48

I have stripped it down and replaced the oil seals and bearings. I have not refitted it to a car to test since, hence the price. Includes the -31 actuator pictured.

£200

Looks like you got a bit excited about your handy work in that first pic Dave!

Always!

What advantages would this give over a standard turbo and what mods would I need to do to the car to fit it?

The main advantage is in the turbine housing. It flows sooooooooo much better than the OE one, and although you would need a downpipe making to match it (see mine on my thread), it gets rid of the restrictive elbow Renault stuck in there. A Cosworth housing is one of the 2 "must do" mods (along with FMIC), and this one is particularly good as you dont need to mod the manifold as you would with most Cosworth style housings (see the manifold flange with the recessed bit).
I have the oil feed pipe that was with it too IIRC which I would throw in to a TR member.

If i were selling the housing alone i'd be asking £100, as it's in really good nick with no cracks.
 
I must be clear though- When I got the unit it was leaking oil from the rear end, thats why I stripped it and replaced the oil seals. Otherwise it was a good unit. I replaced the shaft bearings while I was in there as the kit I bought had them in. I would normally lob it on a car and test it but I don't have a car it will fit on with that R21 T3 flange.
Hence it's untested. Feel free to bid on eBay it might sell for less that £200! (or it might not lol), it's 99p start no reserve.
