Wondering if anyone's used a KKK K16 on a 5 cylinder 10v or 20v
I saw this A4 project yesterday and it was incredible! The exhaust manifold looked like a Sport Q with a runner missing. And the turbo was sick (big) it had a K26 (rs2) hot side (Yes I guessing by the size) and a K16 cold side. The K16 compressor looked like a big garret T04E and it was sized for 500HP. Just curious since it would fit a 5k, S4 or RS2 exhaust manifold.

Heard it run today sounds mean, really mean and seemed very responsive
for not yet being tuned. I found one downfall well for me anyways. It's pricey, I was planning on either a T3/T04E (ball bearing) or a GT35. Now I have to do the math, K16 w/S1 exhaust manifold (cast copy) and factory water/oil lines (which I all ready own) or custom exhaust manifold, Garrett turbo and custom water/oil lines? I would like to stay with KKK turbo though, I like seeing component matching a little, don't get me wrong if a 5000 can run an 8.5 quarter with a blown chevy 502 cool, but what would it had run with the 1000hp 20 valve turbo IMSA motor?

Call or email Innovative Turbo in CA. They will build you what you need for little $$$(relative
I've done business with XS engineering and had good luck. They are one of the few who use genuine garrett parts. Some of the others who have better deals use there own wheels and housing. I'll check into Innovative none the less thanks.

If you want genuine Garrett parts, I know another turbo builder that can give you what you want...
I just thought you said you wanted to stick with Borg-Warner, and I know Innovative carries all their line. You can conglomerate to your heart's content, and have them put together just about anything to fit power/low lag needs. Talk to Justin if you call them. Nice guy, and knowledgeable.

Sorry, thought you were telling me about Innovative Turbo for Garrett turbo parts cheap. That's cool, they have a full line of Borg-Warner-KKK I'll have to call and see what they can do.
