I was reading an article (go ahead and flame) in Import Tuner int he "Power Pages" section with an 89 240 with an SR. After some mods (HKS F-con, fuel pump, turbo elbow and some other stuff, basically the BPU that we all use) they added an HKS GT-RS turbo......

When they dynoed it, they had the boost @ 21.7psi and only made 300.6hp and the same number on torque......now to me that seems kinda low?

Anyone use this turbo and think they fouled up somewhere, or did i over estimate the HKS turbo?

Ahh, you were reading about Nadine's 240(Grey, kouki tails, etc., if I'm correct). If you read further into that article they were tuning with a stock SR MAFS or stock 370cc injectors, I cant remember. That was the reason for the low output, they couldnt get anymore power with the injectors/mafs they were using. I also believe that they were using the S15 T28 bb (GT28R). This is a common upgrade for most of us, but the only real hold-up are the injectors and MAFS.

no, that was a different one

they did two grey s13's and one black one

on this one they did upgrade the injectors to 740's b/c a "Bigger turbo then the GTRS" is on its way maybe
