Blitz Turbos

[neil tt]

Could someone tell me the difference between the Blitz's K1 series, and the KKK turbo please:)

I don't know, but buying things like Blitz, HKS and Apexi turbos is a nightmare if you want repairs or spares, or to change housings as little or no info is available from the "makers" and UK turbo rebuilders tend to wash their hands of them because of the aggravation getting this info. I say, as I have always done, buy direct from Garrett, KKK, IHI or whoever *IN THE UK* so you recourse to service and technical info. It's cheaper and a lt less hassle in the long term.

hi the k1 is a direct replacement of your turbo with a bigger fan[impellor] more power ... the kkk is a pro kit ...with 2 turbos , 2 waste gates,2 manifolds and box of parts to help make up the pipe work ... lots of hard work ....;)

They also do single turbo kits like mine, my exhaust housing as KKK on it.

Because I have a Soarer, the problem is finding manifolds, excluding the ones on ebay. Just considering my options for going single:)

Or I could just fit nitirous to what I have and should be able to run a bit quicker. I don't want to rebuid the engine so anymore than 450 is going to be too much:) well for the engine anyway

There are acouple of options with Garrett turbos from Aus, will have to check prices:)

Oh I don't know. I've managed to source housings from both KKK and Blitz fairly easily. I've also managed to source Blitz's own gaskets and flanges.
If you speak to Fensport, who are now the UK Blitz distributer they'll eiher sort it for you or put you in touch with Blitz Japan who are very helpfull. :)

Incidentaly, I believe all Blitz turbo's are made by KKK...

I was having trouble trying to work out if they where single or not:)

[neil tt]

Still nitirous might be cheaper than going single:)
