so no one has opinions,

Its by turbonetics,a very reputable company. The turbo looks nicely done? I don't know what you want people to say. But it and doubt you'll regret it unless you're broke.

The Gt Killer!!!! prolly good buy one and tell us about it

[jspecusa]

you should call turbonetic and ask them if they have application for 240sx.
2 of their employee has 240sx, one is sr the other is ka.
we use their kit on our yellow s145, extremely reliable, bank the whole oval of irwindale and ran againest japanese d1 car at california speedway.
but the kit uses a stage2 ballbearing t3t4, not the GTK.
good luck,

sam

Nice power! what boost and what supporting mods are done to your car? Also by your dyno graph it looks like that turbo is pretty laggy! when do you make full boost?

[johngriff]

I like them in theory.

I didnt like the retail price tag compared to the garret gt series.

I also didnt like the "non disclosure" of compressor maps etc.

BUT.

The exhaust wheel is made of inconel.

Sexy, sexy.

[steve shadows]

yeah this is no better than a gt35R from garrett, actually the numbers are a little shittier.

I look down on anyone who markets something as


Garrett Killer.

I guess its cool.

I still havent seen a drop of science to confirm they are any better than Garrett GT line up.

I still havent seen a drop of science to confirm they are any better than Garrett GT line up.

And you wont, I spoke directly with their rep's, who REFUSED to disclose any of it. I asked if they even did compressor maps, which they said "yeah we have them', so i say "ok, well, sell the turbo to me, or is it supposed to be 2600 for that flash black compressor housing?"


Non-sense... I do like the exhaust wheel (anti-lag).

But 99.9% of people buying this turbo aren't buying to go all anti lag over it.

To agree with steve, I prefer the gt35 series turbines, the 82r in particular. Gonna take some money from me to get my stuff together but I am going for it. Wanna let me know what you are working with as far as supporting mods?

to see what list I have, look up gt3582r in the search function, you should come across my post for my future build.

Sorry for bumpin a such old thread, but better than making a new :)
I recently bought a gt-k450 for my sr20det. Has anyone tried it out yet?
Im afraid the spool will be to slow for a driftcar, so i might sell it and buy another..
Should have stayed with the gt2860rs maybe.. But i want more power!
