Yeah not sure what kinda figures they are posting but KKK turbos are the business.

I have been in the Porche 996 that holds (or held im not suer if it has been beaten not) the lap record around the Nuburgring which had twin KKK turbochargers on it and the power and spool was unreal ! Excellent for track use !

The K Warner, or KKK (can I say that??? ) off good spool with great horsepower. If you can poney up the cash you won't find yourself a better made turbo.
These turbos are making some great numbers, if I remember Ernie made 373 whp at only 10 psi!!!!! The turbos sweet range is more like 18-25 psi, but if you want some big power numbers and something that spools fairly quick this is a great turbo.
Of course power numbers depend on many other factors, such as tuning, porting, mods, etc...

You could also try looking into the blitz kit, as all the blitz kits use KKK turbos. In the case of the FD, It uses a K27.

Why would I keep dynoing at the same boost level? Besides, Dave blew my **** up the next pull, running 14psi.....and I havn't been on the dyno since. Call me skiddish, I suppose.

No need to be defensive, I was just curious.
I guess that means no.


When you tune for max power at throughout a map isn't it important to change fuel/adv. timing/trailing timing/split at each boost level??

John

Call me silly, I suppose.

Your right, thats why he blew my motor. Too much timing on pump gas. But I have a fantastic tuner now, so Im not worried. I just got my MSD digital 6 today After I install that I'll be ready for more tuning.

Daym - that looks phatt !

Is that the K27 or the K6 you have on there ?

Im seriously looking at one of these as i can get the blitz kit (either turbo) i would go K27 i think, Manifold and Wastegate for around $3750 + Tax.
