Kando Dynamics Turbo

[GTScotT]

Sounds about right, what triggered me to say that was the statement that Kandos are 1/3rd of the price of comparable products and while they are cheaper they are most definitely not 1/3rd. After paying attention for a while I'd feel much more comfortable getting a genuine Borg Warner, Garrett, Precision or Turbonetics turbo and get something long time proven and supported for possibly slightly more outlay.

my decision is based on the item itself more than the price or customer service.

the L2 20g is a good balance for the little SR in my eyes, and I dont think I will get the drivability I want from the PT (5558).

Jez is tuning a SR w/5558 this week so im keen to see how that turns out........... but im doubtful it will show me what i want to see.

Just make sure everything is working mint before you go... I think Sean is going to kill me if another car with a Kinugawa turbo comes in for a tune half put together and not working properly.

Actually I need my car tuned as well, might try and blackmail him into doing mine next week

Of course, I wouldn't have booked it in otherwise. I can understand Seans frustration over that.

Is that just in general, or did he mention my car specifically?

He did my run-in tune without any major drama's. There were a couple of minor unforseeable issues, like the thermo's suddenly deciding they didn't want to switch on anymore, or my spark plugs crapping out even though they were relatively new platinums.

Only things that I have changed since he last saw it, are that the fans are being switched on via the ECU now, and boost controlled by a MAC valve via ECU (As per his suggestion).

Ask him to do it on Tuesday, so I can see it.

Interesting, but that is an old T3/T4 based turbo with a fancy compressor wheel is it not?

I thought the 5558 was something special in terms of being all new gen wheels and what not..

My aim is sub 300kw with as much area under the curve as possible, while sticking to a sensible rev limit (thus the decision to go 256/256 poncams).

I might need to look into these smaller PT's now i guess.

G'Day Kando Klan, I just ordered a 40mm Turbosmart gate (with 18psi spring) from the US, now need to order my kando - would love 300rwkw and the T67-25G (R34 GTT NEO) but it will be a low mount on stock manifold with cross-over cooler pipes, fully street-setup, hence going the TD06SL2-20G 10cm.

Is this the one I should order:

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kinugawa-Turbocharger-3-Non-AntiSurge-TD06SL2-20G-w-T3-10cm-V-Band-Housing-/290745401163?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item43b1c6bf4b

I know this will be very lucky/stretched to make 280rwkw on 98, but theres no other option for a hard-pulling stock setup, from my limited knowledge..

T67 wont fit low mount, comp cover is too big

[scotty nm35]

Way too big, I just finished a 6boost/T67 combo for Josh and it barely fit between the rocker cover and the strut tower. The hot side cooler pipes had very tight bends as the comp cover outlet had to point straight down.

[rondofj]

That link I posted for the TD06SL2-20G T3/10cm/V Band/No anti surge is the correct/ favorite one? Need to order.. Dont know if I went too big in spring choice for my 40mm compgate - 18psi..

http://www.ebay.com....=item43b1c6bf4b

Plan is to get tired of the td06-20G in two years, get a top mount mani, relocate cross-over pipes, modify/extend dump n plumb-back and order T67-25G comp cover and CHRA -noting the rear housing is same as the SL2-20G.

That is the correct one, and you will be able to do what you are suggesting, with some manipulation of the gate pipe.

18psi spring will probably be OK, might not need a boost controller haha.

hopefully the gate comes with 2 springs, so you can remove one for the tune and then pop it back in for its final run.

[rondofj]

Thanks Jase, that is good, ordering soon..........

[ARTZ]

Why struggle for 280 when u can bolt on an IG gtx and easy crank out 300

[rondofj]

GTX costs 3X as much for not much gain.

[ARTZ]

You obviously don't k ow how much I have had to spend on fabrication do you Ron..

Yes the Gtx would have been a few hundred more, bit the setup would be much simpler so I wouldn't be relying on alot of welding..and it makes more power..win Win
