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:

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.

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?
