Thats a nice turbo, hope it makes you happy

Quote from hks forum:
"t51r kai = ~80lbs/min"

Not bad... but you could have a Turbonetics T-70 that flows ~85 lbs/min and ball bearing for half the cost (at least over here ) In fact, they (HKS USA) doesn't even like to admit that the BB kai even exists... STUPID!!!

Good turbo, good luck!

Thats very true. If I had the cash flow there'd be a Kai on the side of my motor

I hear that compressor sounds ******* sweet... Chethem has one on the way, and he's only and hour and a half from me, so I'll get to experience it soon enough But, unfortunately, since HKS USA doesn't offer the bb turbo here... he didn't get that option. Oh well

Kick *** turbo dude....

why don't you just take off the steering wheel so you can concentrate on accelerating more
It'll make your car lighter, just weld the wheels straight
