Can you modify a 930 factory turbo with different turbines
 
Not sure if this is a stupid question but was wondering if you can modify a factory 930 turbo turbocharger with different turbine wheels to get faster spooling and better performance. Where would you get these parts if they exist. Thanks Rob Merry Christmas to all.

Merry Christmas Rob

Most opt to change out the entire turbo unit for a more modern design - better spool and more air, better oiling, ball bearings etc.

Thanks Brad. I was sort of thinking that have posted a Wtb ad for k27 7200 unit. Thanks rob

Merry xmas

I believe Brian, rarlyl8, indeed does offer a more modern modded 3ldz.

I think it depends on your other upgrades and overall goals.

Does anyone know what mods Brian does to the 3LDZ, and how to tell if the mods have already been done on the turbo? Brian, you there?

There is some more infor to be found here: RarlyL8 Turbos & Wastegates

The 3LDZ housing was machined to accept modern Garrett turbine wheels. Nice cheap upgrade. Unfortunately the Asian (black) market has infiltrated the 3LDZ rebuild parts world. Quality control went in the toilet and I stopped selling those turbos. KKK/BW still puts out quality K27 rebuild parts so the 7200's and hybrids have not been affected.
I need to update my website ...

Brian,

I sent you an email about this today. Consider the question answered!
