I think i've settled on the HKS TO4R kit because im getting a pretty darn good price.
Anyways, I just wanted to know what your guys opinions are on it?
IGY. you have one dont you?
Meloco, how is your custom kit running?
and of course Mr.Single turbo test himselfy, Poweraxel, is your custom t04r on the road yet?

Im shooting for the magic "450ish" at around 17psi
it should be doable with a decent power curve to match right?

Lastly, i sold my power FC..considering haltech.
however, im considering going back to PFC because the release of the new dataloggit software.
Any suggestions?
TIA
aleem

oh..and steve/poweraxel, could you give a simple comparison to the other single setups you've tried?
t51, rx6, t78..
thanks!

 

I have the HKS TO4E kit. I think it is OK. Here are my concerns though. The way the downpipe attaches to the turbo sucks. It should have been designed better. The turbo itself isn't the type that allows coolant to pass through it. If I would have known that before hand, I may have reconsidered. My kit didn't come with a BOV, neither did it come with a place to bolt on one if you buy it. I had to have someone weld one on to my IC piping. Also, the directions came in Japanese, and I couldn't find anyone with a set in english. If I had known that HKS plans to business here in the US but can't cater to our needs by printing instructions in English, I also would have reconsidered. The problem is, you don't have many alternatives, if you want a kit. XS makes a great kit, but I wouldn't buy **** from them, because they are slow, and don't carry **** worth of inverntory. Anything ordered from them takes at least three weeks. Thats about it.

 

Ya the only turbo kit that comes with a pipe for a BOV and English intructions is the XS kit. They are also the only turbo kit that comes water and oil cooled.

i love my t04r but would like to get a kai still!

 

didnt you get that badass t51 bb?

hey..you ran a t04r with a 1.15 a/r right?
the fd kit only comes with a .80 i think

do you think i can make around 450rwhp at around 17 psi?

when did you see full boost with the 1.15?

 

<----who me? Aleem. check your PM's

 

is the to4r a good streetable turbo,or just for the track
