Re: K20z1 Swap/Turbo in process.

I hit 230 whp and 213 wtq on a k20a3 engine. Same kit, 6.9 max psi. Flater torque curve too. Somethings not right. Too low of numbers and torque. I suggest a better tuner.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I'm going to check to see if I can get more power out of this set up.

Re: K20z1 Swap/Turbo in process.

Hi everyone,

I have been driving my car around and my turbo is starting to sound different. It doesn't have that nice high pitch winding sound but kind of a fluttering sound. It also sounds like air is coming out some where. Is this a sign that the turbo is ready to go out or maybe just a boost leak? I already checked all the couplings. Thanks in advance.
