Larger turbo options on #6 hotside

Post by morris400 »

I've rocked my k24 7400 all summer, really do like it but like everyone else I want more now lol. Looking to see what options are out there that will fit the rs2 manifold while using the #6 hotside. I was thinking an HX35 might mount up. ( clearance could be an issue)

Trying to keep the same exhaust and manifold if possible. Just picked up a gen 4 stromung DP so I'm pretty excited for that.

Looking to see I'm looking to drop in some rods next summer and would like to build it up to hold around 400whp maybe a tad more.

Thanks guys.

From what I understand, the #6 hotside will be your limiting factor here. The hybrid I have came with a #8 housing. From the measurements I took, this particular turbo measures very close to a 3071.

That was kinda what I was thinking someone would say. Pretty much looking to make the most power I can on the rs2 manifold with stock location turbo.

I pretty much just dont want to deal with custom manifolds and downpipe.

Tim's Turbos does a ton of KKK/HX35 hybrids. I heard he isn't doing straight machining anymore; he'll only sell completely built turbos, but he might have some insight on what will work well in terms of compressor flow with that hotside.

I know... I've maxed out the K24 on my setup, and now want more!

Not sure what's your budget or if you have the wagner/evo rs2 or stock rs2 mani but atpturbo sells a few k26 flange hotsides that will bolt up. There's a few options to pick 28r,30r,and 35r.

Not sure what the budget will be yet, trying to get as much information as I can hoping to start building next fall maybe. I'd like to stay on my rep Rs2 manifold and a k26 hotside for the stock look/fitment.

Wondering is upgrading to the larger k24 7400 hybrid wheel, and doing a 50/50 water meth kit would add just enough power to keep it safe on the stock rods while giving it an added fun factor.
