K24/18g's or GT2860rs turbo upgrade??

They can be run with internals. I would have to replace the drivers side one wastegate because it was removed when I went to externals. Honestly though I'd prefer to sell it as a kit because the headers are fitted around these specific turbos. A little noise has never hurt anyone! LOL!!! I'm from a police hell hole southeast of Houston, but I still pull it off some how LOL. One thing to remember is that they are only loud when you go WOT, but so is your car if you have exhaust.

Unfortunately I drive WOT light to light, and all heads do turn with the B & B exhaust, friends crave the sound, B & B droning is very loud between 2 - 3000 rpm. I will look into external WG's and get back with you, thanks

tials venting to atmosphere is THE BEST SOUND EVER !!!!! they are sooo bad a$$ at WOT , i love scaring people while they are cruising with their windows down and you stomp on it next to them and the growll lol the look on their face is priceless !!!! add big intakes in the fender wells plus large turbos lol sounds like a harrier jet .
also much much more precise boost control over the crapy stock actuators and you will never brake a rod .

Still need a few more to post PM. However after reading more and talking with several companies (knowing they are all trying to sell there's) I have decided to turn towards the GT upgrade.
Quoted from EVO ; Garrett Turbos: GT turbos are designed to have 25% quicker boost response while being capable of producing more than 25% more power compared to a KKK24 turbocharger.

Yea that's a bit of a statement.
I have the 24/20- with tricks... and boost is instant. As long as you have no boost leaks they all spool fast.. Program is the key factor. a rich program will kill your boost-spool up. i used to have a lag in the bottom of mine till i did some runs and asked Proto to take 5% fuel out of the bottom. Whamoooo instant spool! Did a data log and it right on the money!

Not the same thing. A28s (Tial) are not GT2860rs turbos although they use similar parts. Do a quick search and you will find long topics of recent discussion on this very topic!
