Blue beast ,do your self a favor and take it from somone that went through all the turbo stages through the years, spent alot of money in the process...

i would go straight to 18gs and skip the 16gs. and save up a bit and do the extra fuel additions, its not much more.injectors and fuel pump... trust me you will be very happy.

 

HEY,,,Anytime you want to go for a ride or drive my K24/18g car, PM me to meet up...I am not that far.....Markski thinks my car runs pretty good for a K24/18g car.....

 

Thanks. I will need to look into that over the winter.....stupid snow.

 

Thanks Johnspeed! I may take you up on that when it gets nicer out.

 

I drive my car all year around with all season tires on in the winter.....

 

Yep..16g's will get old fast, especially when you get your *** handed to you by an 18g car. 18G's wth the right mods can easily eclipse the capability of the stock engine. As Markski says, actual peformance numbers are VERY driver dependant. My 18g, meth car was right at 600rwhp and went 5.99...but I had some weight loss mods and I am an AWESOME driver...

 

Forget getting beat by 18g cars, Robert P, God rest his soul, used to clean my clock with his k24 car. He had a Revo flash and ran race gas and my 16g car couldn't keep up with it. Get the 18g setup and do it right the first time.

 

Thanks for all the responses everyone. All of them are much appreciated.

 

i have 16gs from Markski and love the performance boost i've gotten. i'm waiting to get a dyno done and then i'll post up results for before and after.

 

Was RP running a 18g/20g upgrade on his k24s?

 

Robert told me he was running stock k24s with a Revo flash and race gas.

 

We would rather you post up your 60-130 numbers.

 

Awesome! Let us know when you can and if possible, the 60-130 times. Thanks

 

i would deffinately take johnspeed up on his offer and take a ride in his care before you do anything, i think you will be impressed.

 

Okay. Long time, but I wanted to give an update on the decision. I went with the K16 RUF turbo Billets that Markski had. After lots of thinking and the type of driving that I am doing, it was the correct decision for me. I unfortunately had to replace the clutch since it started slipping so i am just getting used to the new clutch in the car at this point. I noticed that the aftermarket clutch engages much closer to the top of the pedal than stock. I have heard that this is normal. The car now really moves! Spool up is much faster than before and it holds boost all the way up to the red line at 1.1-1.2 Bar. Runs really smooth and is easy to drive around town. It basically drives stock until I mash that pedal and get slammed back in the seat. If anyone is looking for a ride to help make their decision, please PM me. Mark did a fantastic job with this car and I couldn't be happier. His customer service was exceptional and he even took some pics along the way. Next step will be his IC's. Hope everyone is doing well! Thank you all for all of your inputs. I love reading all of the new posts here. Great stuff on this site.
