The first videos in the thread? The camera car was my EPL tuned Audi S4. Its no 996TT but it holds its own.

Regarding IAT's with the 20g turbos, on my particular setup, with a big front mount intercooler, I saw maybe 30-40 degrees above ambient on a long 4th gear pull.
(I'll have to take a look back at some logs.)
Obviously, a different platform, but I think they would work fine, as Markski has said.
You were using straight 20gs on your VR4, right? I think the concern is that the 20g compressor wheel is too larger for the K24 housing and generates too much heat. Only had one K24/20G car through EPL though, so we haven't been able to verify that conclusively or not.

From the sound of it, there are a few cars here with K24/20Gs that are getting good results.

Yes, they were a Greddy compressor housing with a Mitsubishi TD05 exhaust side.
I had them made by Forced Performance to fit the headers I had on that car.
I had also heard that the 20g wheel created too much heat, but I never had a problem with it.
I am not familiar with the K24 housing, so there may be something to it on your car.

Modesty among car guys is a rare trait. Especially when it's completely uncalled for because your car is a monster.
