ye i got the cash but iam not trying to go full drag, does any body have a kkk stage 2 setup or the t51r setup, and which one is a better setup, and should i go street port or bridge port??????
If you are NOT going full drag, then what the hell are you asking about the T51 and KKK for?? Both are HUGE and are best used on a straight.. I have seen a T51 on a road course, but you could get the same performance on a road course with a MUCH less expensive turbo..

I have always been under the impression that KKK is synonomous with old technology.



Is that not the case?



Sorry, this is sorta on-topic!
I have heard some of their newer compressor wheels are top notch, and are better than a lot of the common garret wheels.

Nice!



Ive been desiding whether to get a T04E or TO4R but ive been leaning more towards getting the T04R the past few weeks.



Any input for me or anything I should know?

Hmm.. I'd ask some of the japan guys about it.. This is my first single and I can't really compare it to anything.. I'm still finishing up the car and haven't even started it yet.. I'll post a vid as soon as I do though..

That's interesting. When I think KKK turbos I think small itty bitty Audi turbos and Porsche 959s....
