KKK Stage 2 turbo

Hey guys

I just talked to Greg from SR Motorsports and ordered my KKK Stage2 turbo and it should be here in no time. I was debating between Apexi and T78 and just decided to go all out with KKK. I hope I made the right decision

Ernie : I guess there will be two people from MD with KKK turbo now or is there someone else with it ??

For $1k cheaper the T-78 is going to give you the same HP figures. Im not saying the KKK kit isnt good, but its not worth the extra money.

There is no way you can compare the T78 to my turbo. Not being an ***, just stating facts. I've driven in a T78 powered Rx7 and although it was nice, it didn't spool as fast as the KKK nor did it have the same top end. I won't ramble, but after I tune in the weeks to come and hit the drag circut w/ Demetrios, I'll be sure and post my results.

Well I get full boost at 4100rpm and makes 432RWHP at 15lbs of boost. That is on a stock motor with a T-78. Take a ported motor and add another 30 RWHP. For the $1k it is not worth the extra money. H.P. numbers are going to be similar.

You would complain!!

I have had many different turbos. T-78 t-88 "Greddy" and many various garrett models. I can say ont thing that the KKK anf Garrett/turbonetics have over the apexi and greddy line. They are repairable. No matter what any one says if you break a shaft on a greddy turbo you are screwed. My T-88 went on a world tour. Japan Greddy, Thier quote was "we sell turbo's not repair them" then it went to turbonetics they can order a whole cartridge only but not individual parts for $1600. Then majestic said no problem sent it to them they said they can replace the compressor with a garrett one but can't get turbine wheels. So to make a long story short I have a T-88 in the garbage. My advice stick to a Garrett ot KKK they can be repaired at most shops within 24hours. Matter of fact I do my own repairs my self because the parts and documentation are so easy to get.
