HKS prototype KA turbo kit featured in Super Street in late 99. I had the manifold modified and a full 3" Stainless downpipe fabbed. Has a T25 flange for the HKS GT3037 turbo that was on it. Don't want to sell the turbo, but I will for the right price. The manifold, HKS wastegate, and downpipe must be sold as a kit. Also, the HKS FMIC and piping to match with an HKS SS BOV already attached and all the connections should go with it, but not necessary.

Turbo kit w/ Turbo - (HKS GT3037 Ball Bearing w/ SwainTech coated turbine, HKS Wastegate, HKS prototype manifold, 3" Stainless downpipe and Test Pipe, HKS prototype FMIC and piping w/ HKS SS BOV and all fittings)......$3250

W/out Turbo......$2000

MSD 50 lb. injectors (4).......$250JWT Top Feed Fuel Rail........$200MSD 7al-2............................$250

But it might be close enough ;) Unless it's a funky manifold...I'm just getting lazy and trying to avoid dealing with getting a muffler shop to make a downpipe...

Edit: yeah, I checked your pictures...there's no way it'd be even close...that IS a funky manifold!

Not a bad price considering the price of a new 3037. How long have you had it installed??

The manifold is really a pretty nice piece. The turbo is not brand new but has around 5,000 miles on it. Spools up QUICK.

I would have bought all that stuff when HKS gave up, but I found out about it a day after all the parts on it were sold. I can't remeber the price I was told it all sold for, but I heard it was very low for all the stuff on that car. That Dual Drager was something I really wanted too. If you were the one that bought it all, GOD DAMN YOU! haha

I'd rather not sell it separate since the manifold has a T25 flange. Obviously, that can be changed, but I would need $1500 for the turbo by itself.

I still have this issue of SS, it says the kit originally came with a GT2540. Isn't that a little small for a KA?
