Peugeot 205 Turbo 16: BG Turbo Restores Your K26 Turbocharger

The Peugeot 205 Turbo 16 is one of the most legendary French performance cars ever built. Produced from 1983 to 1986, it served as the homologation base for the fearsome Group B rally version. With its innovative mid-engine layout, all-wheel drive system, and turbocharged XU8T powerplant, the 205 T16 remains an icon of motorsport engineering.

At the heart of its performance lies the Borg Warner K26 turbocharger (reference 53269886418). After decades of use, these units often require a complete restoration to regain their factory performance. This is where BG Turbo’s expertise becomes essential.
