Help ID turbo k26 cheater? Turbo connoisseurs
Okay I received the below unit as a trade for some parts it was supposed to be a k26-6, but upon inspection I found that the turbine wheel inducer was 64mm and the exducer 54mm, according to some factory data the k26-6 turbine inducer is 64mm but the exducer is 48mm, I took some measurement and compared it to a another k26-6 turbine and indeed this unit exducer is bigger, did I score a rebuilt k26-6 cheater?
TIA

the k27-6 dr is set up similar. The 6 hotside is machined out to fit the 8 wheel. So in essence the dr is a k27-8 with a 6cm turbine housing.
If the compressor wheel is a stock k26, then what you have is a cross betwen the 26-6 and a 26-8. probably acts just a little better than a 26-6.
Have you measured the compressor wheel? That may be modified too..

10 years ago when you were probably in elementary school, Huntley racing came out with some cheater k26-6, designed for club racers, the stock look with extra added power, I believe big John from Texas pushed 330 rwhp at 22 psi with a cheater turbo, of course that's nuts but there is some minimal but gain after all
