which one? I believe they have a few...one being a T62-1 and the other being a T-66....they both make very good power with very good response.

 

its the GR63 kit. just never heard any review on it before. so what size is this one?

I've been wondering about this as well. Maybe, people are watching on R85 and GT40R instead.

 

I was watching this kit for a while when I thought my turbo's were bad.

Basically, the kit is supposed to be very high quality, all stainless steel lines/fitting, no cheap Stuff.

The kit also had 2 stages. Stage 2 had a larger manifold for a slightly slower spool and higher top end horsepower. I believe they have a customer's car that dyno'd at 470 with this kit. They were receiving 10 lbs of boost ~ 3200 RPM. Stage 1 also had a custom manifold, but smaller for quicker spool, slightly less top end. This stage is still under development as temps were getting to hot and they were not comfortable selling it to the general population.

The kit is fairly new and I don't believe a lot of people have had it installed yet.

 

i thought the dual wastegates were pretty trick.

 

Ive got the gr63 kit.. thats my engine in the picture .. I have the first kit.. We were having some problems with the first manifold egts got to hot.. So the quicker spooling kinda of faild because a bigger manifold hade to be made. But im extreamly happy with the turbo.. I will try and get you guys some numbers as soon as I can.

Kyro-2
please do so

 

Hey kryo-2...any ideas on where we could find more info or specs on the turbo kits?

 

Whats up man?? Hows the car running?? Its Matt from Tucson. I have had some great kills in my ca.r What about you? The best kill was a 03 cobra with a Kenne Bell blower (he was running 18psi, I was running 12psi).


Later.

Damn thats pretty good. With the kenny blower the cobra can make upwards of 600 to the wheels on race gas

 

Steve, is the 474 on a T66? what AR, and trim?
