    Turbo options?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    No more tial 770 or gt28s?

    based off my google search's it seems like they don't sell these kits anymore.

    I'm looking to step up from k04's here shortly and am having a tough time deciding what to go with

    I seen the turbo concepts dzx-274's, but also seen a thread where it looks like they don't perform as advertised, not to mention id prefer a little more range then what they "say" they make

    outside of single turbo, what are other decent options for the 650-700hp range?

    G25-550 setup is the move if you have big boy bucks to spend

    You got to pay to play. If you want 650-750hp range.

    I’d stay away from the TC turbos I’ve yet to see any of their larger offerings make good power/powerband yet I do see the opposite and failures.

    I’d think hard on what you want to do but if you want a step over the K04s I’d get some rs6 turbos but that ain’t going hit your 650-700 goal.
    If you are ready to make the jump to those kind numbers STK would be the cheapest route but no matter what you will be spending $$$$

    Rs6's with rods on E makes for a very potent street car.

    Tial isn't producing new 770 kits, but you can always buy a used set and have Tial rebuild them. I just got mine back from Tial after having them inspected and one rebuilt.
    A basic inspect/rebuild (new CHRA) is only $500-ish/turbo. I decided to make the switch to single turbo, so let me know if you're interested in a really nice Tial kit

    What about the TTE offerings? They seem like a popular choice in Europe for 600+ whp builds

    They are definitely an option but in my opinion all said and done the costs would be close to a g25-550 kit which would be better.

    If you found a used set of Tials I would send them into Tims Turbo if they need rebuilding/refresh, My tials sat at tial from June till Sept. They had a lot of employees leave. I had them shipped right to Tims Turbo, he did a fantastic job and it was cheaper than what Tial quoted and they were done quickly. My vote is go the G25-550 route. Its the Big boy setup, do it once do it right. Hopefully Ill have my G25 setup going this spring.
