T51R questions
hey guys, im in the market for a nice single turbo kit for my FD and im really interested in the HKS T51R. ive seen that the SPL is available in ball bearing... is the regular t51 also available in BB?
i know that u cant rebuild a BB but they spool up faster, approximately how much faster?
also, if i sent an apex seal thorugh the turbo and damaged the fins on the turbo how much would it cost to rebuild it with new propellers and all?
thanks alot guys

oh ok great, i thought that soul was running the BB spl but i guess i was mistaken. how fast does the BB kai spool? have u ever compared it to the bush version?
also, i spoke with HKSUSA and they stated that the BB turbos are not yet available to market. can you get you hands on another full kai BB FD kit?

thats great to hear guys. i definately hope that im making the right choice. could u guys also point me to where the BB version is available, if i could i'd rather get it in BB.
also, doesnt the stock map sensor only read up to 17psi? where can i get an upgraded map sensor so that i can run 20?

as far as hitting the car it depends on many different things, position, what manifold you use and stuff. i am using an HPI manifold.
