I am also looking at this option and leaning towards the K24/18g. As there are many vendors to get them from, what are the differences between their products?
How about my 8.40 on stock K16's. That time is off. GT28's will put you well into the 7's. Talk to Jitsu about his 60-130 times.
That's an awesome time with k16's no doubt, but you were RWD, which definitely helped.
All the 60-130 runs I've done have been AWD.
I wasn't pussy footing around with the 8.25. I had tried several times with that setup, and the 8.25 was the best I could do. I was very disappointed with it...trust me. That is what inspired me to switch to the 18g's, and I'm VERY happy I did. They are a great turbo!!!

Go K24/18G and have the 60lb injectors put in at the start. See how you like it and then take things to the next level when you are ready.

steve , question if your thinking fo going with k24/18s why are you so desperate to sell your existing k24s ? why dont you send them to have them done? just some food for thought ..

As you can see, the 24/18's make more power up top. The only catch in your situation is you have to send them out to be reworked (I suggest Blauch sp? turbo) unless they have another pair around that they are willing to trade.

Thanks for the input guys
The reason I wanted my k24s gone today was because I was gonna but jitsu's gt28's
But after reading everyones info, it seems the k24 18 hybrids are the way to go ...

...500awhp on a k24 car is pretty hard im at 500rwhp on a k24 car tuned by UMW ...
youre better off with one of the same set ups im looking at
Have you talked with Kevin about what he can do for you?

Yes ^^^. If you are locked into Kevin, then why dont you ask him.
His answer will be something with Zero Clearance in its description.
Otherwise there are now several tuners (in addition to the Maestro Knighton),
that have tuning for the K24/18g. I have been very happy with the turbo
for street, road racing, texas mile, whatever; works great!

We just ordered 50 sets of K24s, in the coming months we will have both the K24s and K24/18G's available for shops and individuals to have in a days notice to make these decisions a bit easier

Like everyone has said - the K24/18G turbos are a blast and a great bang for the buck, especially if you have an X50 car to begin with...as an indicator of power, with fuel they are capable of 10's in the 1/4 mile, very low 11's all day long with traps in the 130's. Of course there's faster, but this is a great level and a relatively easy upgrade.
