Iam thinking of getting a HKS to4 turbo, just want to know if anybody has this set-up on their car atm?

is it laggy? any details? how much it produce? etc etc.

any information would help.

Thanks in advance!

hey dude

this turbo is going on my car now... i think it may have a larger ex wheel (unsure) but we r looking for around 275-300rwkws on about 18psi

i think stock ones produce about 250 odd on a rb25

[Sentric dancer]

will it be as punchy as a 2835?

[KamikazeR33]

ive never felt a 2835, but a t04 on a soarer at 1 bar boost makes the thing hammer, est rwkw about 230rwkws on the soarer

the one ive bought is a fully rebuilt one with a bigger wheel for $900

they r pretty cheap turbo if u know where to get them

Would you mind suggesting where i would start looking for one of these? How would it go on an rb20 with simple mods?

Forgive me if I'm a bit confused but the way HKS works is the 2000 series, the 3000 series, then the T04, then the T51 series.

ie. the 2835 is the largest of the 2000, the 3037/3040 is the ext. wastegate models and then it's the T04.

So...

Isn't the T04 incredibly large for the RB20/25 series?

A TO4 on an RB20 would not make full boost untill about 5000rpm.

But when it did........... HANG ON.

i think some of you guys are getting alittle confused with the old school garret T04(e/s/v/whatever trim as there are heaps of different style T04's) and the HKS T04

[KamikazeR33]

yeah i agree with whistla

most of the t04's r based around a 450hp output

most r this size (same size as kkk k27 turbo), but there is a few that have larger wheels in them

There are four different types of HKS T04. Most of them also come in with different diameter housings as well.

I think it goes- T04s, T04r, T04r Cut Back, then the new kid on the block the T04Z. Apparently the T04Z is set to revolutionise turbos with its unique impeller design. It has holes drilled into the excess metal, feeding air into the edges of the impeller. Apparently this is said to prevent surgning with the larger impeller.

This concept is similar to the new Trust T88H-38GK
