MKG's Custom Single Turbo Build

Dallaz · 05-08-2013, 12:18 PM

Exciting thread, good luck on this kit!

Think I'll jump in here. I too was skeptical of the turbo. When I was sizing them for single it was evident that a MASSIVE turbo would be needed to not be choked off. Really the s366 borg is more appropriately sized. However, MKG really wants a response machine. So the smaller turbo is the way to go. Oh, also with the billet wheel upgrade it should be able to max around ~650whp. And yes it will be close to choking, but it shouldn't, the billet wheel again gives just enough room. Not saying that it won't be as efficient up top as a bigger snail but it should get the job done.

No way? I never was able to find one. Guess I will hit up the old search function again. Thanks for the heads up!

And yes BW is probably one of my favorite manufacturer's. If I was made of money I would be using one of the new EFR turbos.

Just checked it out. It will certainly be useful for some other ideas. But we are tucking a good deal more than that. I hope to have some pics for you guys by Friday. Driver side is almost done. Passenger side is what will be getting some heavy attention though.

JARblue · 05-08-2013, 03:52 PM

Sounds good

MOAR PICS!! lol

MyKindaGuise · 05-08-2013, 09:00 PM

I already updated the original post but for those reading up here is the picture of my driver side tuck almost completed.
