I have a pair of hks gt ss turbos for sale... They are used but in awesome condition.... These turbos have done bugger all km's as there is next to no shaft play.... Side to side or in out! I need these gone ppl. $1700 ono comes with the hks actuators. Reason for sale is I'm gonna chase 800- 1000hp and these just won't cut it. They will make 600hp plus apparently. They are very responsive and they pull awesome through the whole gear. My loss your gain. Very clean turbos..... You will not be dissapointed

Hey mate.

These are great turbos indeed, but infact are actually only rated to ~560hp and real world results on the dyno thread have shown these to be at thier limits at around the 340awkw (450hp) mark, the response & midrange is great making these the perfect turbo for street use according to some but i think 600hp+ is abit off the mark.

Anyways thats my 2c GLWS mate.

Yeah but you suffer more of a loss being four wheel drive yeah? So if you make 350kw at all four its about the same as 400kw rear wheel which would work out about 540- 560hp right..... I have seen somewhere someone making 600hp with these turbos in a thread somewhere I'm sure of it!

Im certainly not an expert in 2wd to 4wd dyno results difference but everything ive read in Drivetrain & Transmission Section points to the direction of 20-30kws tops and not a percentage like most people have been lead to believe.

Although most results have been with 98Ron & e85 has changed things up abit...

And then there is this.....Today, we are going to take a look at the smallest turbocharger currently offered by HKS, the GT-SS.  Officially, HKS rates the GT-SS turbo for 280ps, which is roughly 276hp.  It is worth noting that HKS power ratings are indicative of wheel horsepower, rather than flywheel horsepower.  In practice, the hks gt-ss has been shown to develop as much as 320ps, or around 315hp.  HKS currently offers the GT-SS in various engine specific packages to make installation and bolt on affair.  All GT-SS kits come with all required gaskets, bolts and fittings.

      Airbox for +T

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      I get you, we’ll see I’m aiming for 200ish kw now and hopefully 300rwkw down the line after some upgrades maybe like headstuds, E85 flex fuel etc  so trying to make it final for that now, I can get a GTT airbox for $280 so it’s not too bad but not sure if there’s better ways to spend that money. I seen online they say pod filter which isn’t enclosed isn’t good especially for a plus T.      hard to say what to do

      Airbox for +T

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Meh. How much power can you make from a +T anyway? I wouldn't have though it would be enough to challenge the airbox. It's not as if it's tiny compared with the turbo one. As to putting a pod in a stock airbox .... it's not the filter element that would be restrictive. It would be the air inlet to the box that would be the narrow point, which you could open up regardless of what element was inside. On my R32 I opened up the sort of triangular opening in the bottom front corner of the box, deformed (heated, moulded) some 4" stormwater pipe to fit to that opening and punched a 4" hole down through the inner guard to the spot where the stock intercooler used to be. This was purely in the search for a cold intake, but you could do something similar if you need to open up the inlet side of it. The AFM tube size is the same for both NA and turbo, so the outlet from the airbox is same same anyway. If you're going to do the right thing, then an aftermarket ECU won't care about the AFM (ie, you can get rid of it). But even if it was still there, people pull >300rwkW through them all day, and I suspect you won't be going there.

      By BuiltNotBought · Posted

      Doing a +T on my car and I’ve read the precious forums lots of mixed reviews from sometime back.  checking if anyone has any ideas for airbox or enclosed pod filter or solutions?  I was thinking stock GTT box but some say it’s restrictive? I seen some people try fit in a pod in the box anyone done that recently?  not any good enclosed options ? Thanks
