I've always been slightly disappointed by the performance of my Type S, and I've just been having a look through the previous owners 'service history/receipts' and came across a tiny little reciept from Kent Turbos, apparently a new turbo was fitted at 110k, and written in Biro on the receipt is 'Hybrid Turbo'. Hmmmm. Could this be the problem? I haven't investigated the car yet, but I have started searching for Turbos, and I can't find any definitive evidence that the Type S Turbo is different from the standard Turbo. But looking on eBay I have found a Turbo that states it was taken off a Type S, and also a Turbo from a standard I-dtec. Looking at the part numbers, they are as follows.
Standard: 1890 RL1 G010 M2
Type S. : 1890 RL1 G012 M2
Does any one know if the Turbos are different?
