anyone know anything about KKK K26's? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

someone gave this thing to me. it was free.

it's a KKK K26. supposedly off an audi 5000.... supposedly comparable to a t3. also, supposedly will fit a t3 exhaust flange. can anyone confirm this? or tell me ANYTHING about this turbo? seems to be in great condition, minus having a bolt broken off inside it.. but i can drill that out.

i know blitz uses that on in one of ther turbo kits..or is it a K27??

anyway..is that regular T3 or euro T3 flange??...i jus found out about those...so that too is a consideration seein as how it came off an audi

oh...its a german turbo..common on VWs, Audis, and porsche..maybe mercedes..idk

edit: yup jus checked its a K27 for an FD...if its an upgrade for an FD it must be decent and big...even though its a K26 it should be ok

edit #2 http://splparts.com/Silvia/Turbo/TurboKit.asp <---there is a kit for an S14 using the K26 and the K27

Don't know anything about the turbo itself. However i do know they are VERY high quality turbos. Audi obviously uses them and so does Porsche.

hmmm... good to know. yeah, it's a k26, not 27. it was used on the 944 turbo... the 911's got the k27.

this is pretty sweet. yeah, it's pretty big. and this thing has VERY minimal shaftplay... all i need to do is drill out this bolt.

i had a KKK K26 on my KA-T... fairly fast spooling, a little bit bigger than a t3... mine came off a 944 porsche turbo... very good turbos...and they are a T3 flange fitting turbo... im not sure of the turbo your getting but mine was an external wastegate style...

i have a tial wastegate thats going to be on sale sometime this week... if you need it...PM me..

i have a kkk k27 powered ka-t
that turbo is awesome.
spool up is'nt quick,(not slow either!)
but mid to upper end kicks ass!!!
dyno came up at 226whp and 233lbs. torque
at 5 psi.

Sounds nice cdigity, build your engine and crank up the boost. I wanna see how much quicker you hit boost when running like 15lbs hehe. Yes these German turbos seem preeeetty interesting if I must say. I'm going to consider them when I go turbo (whenever that will be hehe).

Muzzy · 09-12-2003, 11:16 PM

wow thas damn good at 5psi!!
i know its aig turbo..it must have really good flow for it to crank that much at only 5 psi..unless u have other work done to the motor internaly.

by the way..how did u obtain a K27??

Nerfdude · 09-13-2003, 01:23 AM

they ARE t3 fitting?! SWEET.... i've got my turbo already... and it was free... and apparently isn't crap.... awesome. thx guys. i'll probably have this thing setup by next summer...

s13silady · 09-13-2003, 03:27 AM

Muzzy · 09-13-2003, 07:42 AM
