Protomotive K24/18G turbo's
 
I am interested in the turbo setup and would like to know more peoples opinions about the turbo's?

I would like some sort of timed performance figures if possible?

I would like to know how long people have been running this conversion without any problems?
.......etc...etc.......

I am dyeing to upgrade my Porsche and have been reading for months about turbo conversions and out of all the conversions ive read about so far this one seems to be popular, I just dont want waste my money on something I wont be happy with so I have been patient and now is time to do somthing!!!!! ;P


P.S. Any videos would be nice.

Great turbo. I ran 10.6 @ 136 on K24/18G's on stock internals at only 1.3 BAR. No problems at all with the turbos. Here's a vid:

Thanx for that scott.

Quick question how long did you run this setup for ie. mileage/time period please?

Divexxtreme Feb 25, 2007 09:29 AM

Not long. Maybe 5k miles before I decided to upgrade. But that's just because I wanted more power.

I have no reason to believe those turbos woudn't last just as long as stock K24's or K16's.

Also I forgot to mention that I am in the U.K. and run my car on pump gas(99 ron) is this ok?

What type of fuel do you use scott?

markski@markskituning Feb 25, 2007 10:09 AM

u run a boost controller so u u adjust to the fuel u run.... at 99 ron I think should be at 1.2 bars.

I am running this set up now and am at 500 AWHP

Ill remove them myself.

GTRNICK Feb 25, 2007 12:31 PM

When would u get full boost?

How did it drive off boost?

I have a remapped ecu and a stage2 loud europipe at the moment and its very responsive so would I geta similar repsonse from the new turbo's???

Do you know if Todd has to machine the k24's alot to fit the 18g wheel in the housing?
