A TO4R turbo and T-66 is almost the same. Good for 600+ rwhp.

I take that back what I wrote. 600 rwhp w/NOS. Sorry.

On pump gas at 14 psi you can make 430 rwhp on the T-66. You can check out the specs on the TO4R here: http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=824 you can see the specs are similar to the T-66.

What's the 620 in your sig? Are you using nitrous for that number?

How's the boost response on that big boy? And what boost pressure did it reached when you pulled 620 rwhp?

Anyhow, thats awesome. I was thinking about running one of those on my 20B. Do you have a dyno sheet of your KAI turbo on the 13b?

bah why not go with triple to4e's on the 20B... should be good for say 1,000 hp if you can keep it together...

Thats the point, keeping it together. I'd like to do a twin 60-1 setup, but the manifold design and dowpipe are just something I don't want to deal with right now. Single turbo simplifies everything TREMENDOUSLY. The stock twins on my 20B are so small that you can even see them

is the kai controllable and reasonable in normal street driving or do you always have to work at keeping the the thing together? (looking at all your various pix you must own a tire store... i've got mine now where it really pulls smoothly all the way up to 8000 rpm. no break up, no stuttering, no stumbling, no soft spots. for someone who only wants a smooth 450-500 rwhp with a "refined" feel to it, what would a kai offer me? i have looked at the innovative turbo dual ball bearing stuff and think it might offer something in better spool up and a more refined feel with the same kind of power. how is the kai at -- not that i think you spend ANY tme doing this -- "part throttle" (that's right, part throttle. go ahead try it. its ok. hehehe)? and, what EMS do you use with it?

i noticed that steve o'brien went to the kai and a few other guys. i think its becoming THE big turbo and am really curious about what you think sets it apart. what its distinguishing characteristics are.

thanks, gordon
Gordon, the kai will not spool to your likings. Trust me. the 4 K Alf is claiming is on a fully bridge ported engine
