Default Twin turbo system, Sard/Blitz Tial K26s

Sorry guys, this is for the GTE only.

Anyone want a ready to run big twin setup? $1500.00 gets you a pair of
K26s (same turbos as SaRD and Blitz use) a pair of Tial 38mm wastegates, all mounted to a modified stock mainfold, includes all oil lines, both feed (dual -3) and drain (Dual -12 and modified factory oil drain fitting to bolt right on yours), and a Y intake pipe.. Made 354whp/343tq at 13psi before my USDM intake cam swap. Hate to see it go, but I need simplicity for this race car. This setup clears the firewall with room to spare, no banging for the heater core for you new swap guys.

Spool up is on par with a T61, but you get the visual impact of 2 turbos when you pop the hood at a show or in the parking lot. This setup gets a lot of attention. The k26s are good for about 300whp at 26psi, so these are just a fuel upgrade and about 10psi of boost more away from 500whp. I ran on stock fuel (Aristo 440s) with no BCC and ran them at 13psi. It was a perfect setup at this boost, the tranny survived a full 2 seasons of racing.

These turbos do not smoke. Great condition. The KKK turbos are famous for their reliability.



shipping is on the buyer.. most likely fedex ground (fastest and cheapest)
paypal accepted. I'll say it again, all this for only $1500.00 plus shipping.

hmm.. maybe I should add that one of the only times i street raced with this setup was against a 2005 E46 M3 that had some mods. On a 40 roll I put 3 lengths on him before I hit 100mph.. I shut it down then b/c he wasnt going to catch me..

Haha.. sorry buddy. All the proceeds from this sale will be going toward a single turbo, manifold and 44mm wastegate. So unfortunately I need all cash.

Just thought of something else to add.. I put this in the ad on SF, but it will hold more use here.. I will include the dual 2.5" downpipes I built for this kit too. One is flanged for the stock O2, and one is bunged for a wideband O2. In the 1st gen GS it will be a complete install.. just put the twins on, bolt up the dp's and drive it to a muffler shop.

So just to recap.. this sale is for 2 k26 turbos, 2 38mm tial wastegates, oil feed and drain lines, 2 2.5" downpipes. All for $1500.00 plus shipping.

no no no Eric.. I made 354rwhp/343tq @ 13 psi before the usdm intake cam swap. I was hoping you'd chime in since you had the closest setup to mine that i know of.

anyways.. i figured out the routing for the hot pipe, the twins are back in the car and the project is nearly completed. watch soon for more drift craziness vids.

here's a quick pic of what i came up with. camera phone pic.. sorry
