Where did he bring it from??

for starters this turbo is much bigger then stock. you need to get it tuned!

the reason why it does not feel more powerfull may be a mixture of the tune, and that the stock kkr turbo's have very light waste gate actuator springs so its probly only running 7psi.

good luck with it, those turboes are not as bad as everyone makes them out to be

FYI i thought my KKR480 was an utter piece of shit until I recently inspected the exhaust, finding a severe blockage in it. I then unblocked it, and ever since it's been boosting <3000rpm and hitting full boost at around 4000. That is with a tune though. So in short, they aren't complete shit, but I still wouldn't buy another.

[gt-ahhh!]

check your wastegate actuator. i had to wind several turns onto mine before it hit any kind of reasonable boost.

Buy a bleed valve or ebc, done! (GET A TUNE TOO)
