Going BT! This should spool, yea?

Found a great deal on this turbo. The serial tag on it says T51r SPL. A little teaser pic:

**witwer4444** · 01-26-2012 10:04 AM

never seen an HKS on a 2.0 or any Audi for that matter. Good luck!

**EMAXX** · 01-26-2012 10:24 AM

You need to clean your engine bay.

What is this turbo really going in?

**jimrobbington** · 01-26-2012 11:04 AM

Going for the no-hood-look, huh?

**pierranchis** · 01-26-2012 11:21 AM

If "LagIsForePlay" as your name states, then call your car "BlueBalls" because that's all she'll give you with that turbo...

^BAZINGAH!!!!!!

**RAudiB7A4** · 01-26-2012 12:01 PM

^Hahahaha! That thing is fuckin huge! Built motor? Cuz if not, I'm with these^ guys. Forplay is about it...

**viziers** · 01-26-2012 12:15 PM

vizi

**vdubjetta02** · 01-26-2012 12:31 PM

the motor will need to rev to 8500 RPMS for that turbo to even have a chance

**A42007** · 01-26-2012 12:39 PM

Haha, well that got brutally honest real fast....

**Ed Gein** · 01-26-2012 12:40 PM

Beautiful turbo though

**CorneliusRox** · 01-26-2012 01:05 PM

I say grab a K0R and pair them up, otherwise, I doubt you'll spool this unless you are pushing more fuel than anyone on this forum.

**viperdsa** · 01-26-2012 01:15 PM

hope there is a 2jz swap planned to go along with that turbo lol

**Ed Gein** · 01-26-2012 01:21 PM

This should be in the general section unless he's joking...

**DRAKLORE** · 01-26-2012 05:32 PM

Haha, I wish this guy the best of luck. Beautiful turbo, but your going to have to be pretty innovative if your going to make that setup work.

**Flexcj5** · 01-26-2012 07:24 PM

If rediculous post is serious, you're gonna need a serious motor, and maybe a pre-turbo to help spool that big ass one. I think a twin turbo, built 2.0 would be sick. Definitely smoething different. Fueling and tuning will be a bitch though.

Edit: I'm thinking you could almost let the K03 spool that thing.

Isn't the OP's weekend car a Supra?

**LagIsForePlay** · 01-27-2012 07:58 AM

Alright guys, I am getting a little scared now with everyone saying that it wont spool. I bought it because it said it was a .57 trim turbo and I thought that it was a decent size turbo. Here are the specs: http://www.hksusa.com/products/?id=817. I got manifold back from the powdercoaters. I will update my progress tonight.

**Jay-Bee** · 01-27-2012 08:18 AM

If you got a good deal on it hell yeah you're gonna flip it for a bonus, it's a mid 3grand turbo new.

The trim means nothing it's got a 1.00 A/R.

But have a look at some compressor maps, over lay this one with some turbos that are regular around here, you'll see why.

**mr shickadance** · 01-27-2012 08:33 AM

you realize that the turbo itself is almost the entire size of your valve cover right?

its a bummer that your bought a turbo that really does not have a practical application for this 4 cylinder car, well... allow me to rephrase that, its a bummer that you bought a turbo that would require a lot of monies in order to make it work, but you do have some options

you could sell the turbo for more monies then you paid for it and use those funds to try and get something a little bit more practical like a gt30 or something

Yes. http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...-A4?highlight=

Also, OP you have a CVT, you sure you want to add all the power that turbo can provide.

Still not sure if serious

I really doubt he is going to put this on his A4, even if he got the turbo for a steal price. I have a feeling this guy is not a noob on turbos and this is going on the Supra.

**LagIsForePlay** · 01-27-2012 09:57 AM

Awww you guys caught on too quickly... Yes this is not going on the A4. Here it is on the supra, testing fit and making new intercooler pipes.

**QUATTROA4B7** · 01-27-2012 10:13 AM

^^ That is awesome

What kind of numbers you shooting for??

**viperdsa** · 01-27-2012 03:43 PM

Having looked around, Titan motorsports sells a kit with that turbo and says its proven to 1000hp. Looking forward to see the results

**Ed Gein** · 01-27-2012 04:06 PM

Where is sprode in all of this...

**Mc Suly** · 01-27-2012 04:46 PM

purtty turbo

**LagIsForePlay** · 01-28-2012 06:54 PM

Looking for 600+ on pump and 800+ on race gas. And once we get another E85 station I will be switching to corn. 1000 wheel is pretty hard on this setup without supporting mods. I am still on a stock long block minus cams and valve train.

Updates: New oil lines are on, new cooling lines plumbed, and I took off a oil cooler system that I really did not need.
