HKS Turbo?

[Havok316]

Just reading an article in my mag the HKS T51R turbo and its meant to be the best performing turbo on the market altho in the mag it is fitted to a skyline would it fit on a beefa cupra?

you think 1781cc will spool a turbo sized for a skyline?

Isnt HKS mostly for Jap motors?

look at it this way, turbochargers require exhaust gases to "spool" (spin the turbine up to a RPM where it is providing positive pressure (boost) ), a turbocharger designed for a 2.6litre skyline is going to have problems spooling using the smaller 1781cc engine's lesser exhaust gasses

nevermind the fitment issues!

if u turn up da boost 2 da max

2.6L vs 1.8 lol

is the mag max powa?

Hmm i dunno, if you can find a way of making the 20vt rev like a motorbike you might be shifting enough exhaust gases to spool up around 15k rpm, then hold onto your anus, youre heading for fastsville.

some questions just cant be answered without a few digs, once you've been here a while you tend to realise it has to be done

Does'nt my reply answer that?

That said... I run a turbo which is for a 2.5ltr subaru on a 1900 20v motor, and it rocks! (but my motor is anything from bog stock to begin with)

HKS make good turbo's from the rep I have heard. Fitment is unknown for 1.8T - I've not heard of anyone trying one.

 

[Havok316]

all i wanted to know is do HKS make a turbo that could work for the cupras

 

[ibizacupra]

dont know m8 sorry.
if you can find compressor maps for them then compare with something like IHIvf34 or garrett gt28rs for airflows and thats a good guide to begin with for sizing... then fitment itself onto suitable manifold is ya next problem
