    Default 1ggte wth k3t kkk turbo will it have any power?

    i have a stock 1g hoping to upgrade the injectors when i have some spare change it has a greddy e managment thingo with a 3 inch exhaust and custom manifold. the turbo that was on there was a gt35r which was way to big obvisouly so now i have the chance to get a kkk or kkr cant remeber k3t turbo for pretty cheap what i want to know is will this turbo suit this engine and be able to hold 18 psi and it is only oil cooled will this be a problem??

    Apparently they are good for up to 400 odd hp, so it should be ok. What didnt you like about the 35r? What range did it begin to spool and have full boost by?

    what type of manifold (you said custom - who made it?) intercooler piping size/path, intercooler itself etc were you running at the time of the lag monster GT35R assuming it was at least the .86 rear housing? not the .63? i'm more interested in the 35R, as they are a very usable turbo in most applications..

    i'm surprised to say the least, i know of a few 2L motors pushing 35r's quite nicley (with a .86 rear) but alot is due about thier setups and manifold designs etc...

    are you thinking of the KKR 380?? keep in mind that it is not ball bearing or anything fancy... just a cheap new turbo with mixed reviews...

    looked into a precision turbo?? something around the 48mm-55mm range would be something very sutable for not HUGE hp, but very good response.. unfortunatly thier billet range starts in the slightly bigger frames.. aussie dollar is pretty awesome at the moment

    just one of the many USA stores that stock Precision turbo's..

    your already running an external gate i'm assuming??

    seems very cheap and enough for what your chasing i dare say... i wouldn't expect it to be SUPER responsive, but a fair bit more than the GT35r.... didn't want to put a .63 rear onto the the 35r?? or have you already sold it?? bit of a stuff around.. but you will have a awesome BB garrett

    MTQ will have everything you need to do the .63 on your GT35r... and they can do it for you (mostly concerned about the balancing)...
