These were designed by S-Car-Go specifically to bolt directly into our cars. 10k miles on them. One turbo looks brand new, the other is being sent to Blouch turbo for a new compressor wheel and rebalancing so that the turbos will be in perfect shape for the new buyer.

These turbos have the tial internal wastegates and have absolutely zero lag and I made 580 rwhp with them on a stock (w/ 5 bar fpr) fuel system.

Turbos retailed for $4.5K but I will sell them for 1.9K firm.

 

Are they a direct drop in or do you need new headers etc?

 

Direct drop in. Just add water lines. A decent shop, or you if you have a bit of mechanical skill can add the water lines or you can buy the water line kit for about $350.

Actually I was told that you don't have to add the water lines, but I do not understand why someone would want to skimp on something that significantly prolongs the life of the turbos and greatly reduces cool down time.

Also, if I were adding these turbos I would also port my headers or add some aftermarket headers for the improved flow. There are some some excellent deals on headers out there right now.

Nonetheless, these will bolt directly to stock headers.

 

Sale pending.

 

Still for sale.

 

what size is the hotside?

 

Small..K16's I think.

 

Are you upgrading, that's why the sell?

 

Yes. Actually, I was very happy w/ these turbos, my car was incredibly fast and responsive. These turbos were great on the track but my friend upgraded his GT 2 to 24/18's and started to run me even.

I must beat that damn Paulie Walnuts!!!


Therefore I am upgrading to GT 3076's so that I can crush him properly and restore order to the universe.

 

That's funny as hell. I am running some GT28's too and while the lag is nonexistent I think I need me some of those 30's as well...can't wait to hear the feedback or comparo to your old GT28 set up.

 

Apologies in advance for the off topic and thread hijack, but what setup did you guys run with these turbos (injectors, fpr, flash from which vendor, etc), was the install involved, how did it run, and any pointers worthy of mentioning? I ask because I have a set of GT28 hybrids (K16 housings) ready to go on my car and want to know what to expect. Just PM me... Thanks!

Sounds like alota one-upsmanship going on here . I love the sound of having no lag.

 

The problem w/ GT 30's is that you will need either to run an adapter kit w/ external wastegates (that is what I am doing) which will cost over 6K by the time you are done or have equally expensive fabrication work done (and I only know of one person who is experienced).

And of course you start risking the stock bottom end but I am willing to take that risk.

 

I know everyone talks about the magical 700 threshhold for bottom end survivability, but has anyone actually heard or seen of anyone prove this the hard way? I have not. Now we have Switzer pushing 850 on stock internals and cracking off 4 second 60-130 times. Me thinks you are going to be easily in the 5's with the 30's and I would be willing to risk it too. Maybe it's time to find out exactly where that kaboom line really is, I don't give a ****, I just want to go fast! Please keep me posted on your results!!!!

 

How is the sale going?
