Remeber Huntley's Stage 2 turbo??
It was a KKK hot housing with a Turbonetics cold side. Anyone have any info on this turbo such as compressor map or even compressor housing A/R??
Thanks.
Thanks.

I trust you've heard not all "Stage 2" turbos Huntley sold were the same. By all reports, he would occassionally mix and match parts to get stuff off his shelves. Having said that, I've been running my stage 2 for over 5 years and still like it a lot. I can look for the A/R next time the intake is off if helpful. Jon Anderson actually sold me my turbo and walked me through the installation, etc., back when he worked at huntley. He's still around and could give you an earful about Huntley and perhaps the specs of those turbos. Tim Richardson probably could do the same.

Hope this doesn't go off-topic, but i've been pondering this ideal. Why couldn't someone just put together say a T04E coldside and mate it to a KKK hotside? What would be required to do so? I mean, these parts are readily avalable.. why isn't this done more often?

Maybe I will just get in touch with John.
Thanks again.

I know one at least 1 place that sells these turbos: www.034efi.com
These guys offer them for the '82-'95 Audi Turbo Quattros, but from what I recall, they will bolt on to 944s.
They're basically Garrett GT ball-bearing turbos with KKK turbine housings (K24 or K26, and I'm sure they can configure a K27).
They are more expensive than your typical $600 TO4E, but are much more durable and efficient.
BTW, Huntley Racing was a joke.

From Huntley's site...
HR Stage II - This turbo was supposed to be our 'Quick spool' which it did
out of the box. It has a very strong bottom end, but we were feeling that
out 300 HP top end goal might have been a little conservative in testing.
Once the 'on road' break in was done and we took it to the dyno, we had to
blush a little. We went a little past our HP goal of 300 HP. We hit 335 HP
at the wheels (402 HP Flywheel) without much effort! Oops! So anyway that is
the tale of how Stage I became Stage II and we went back to the drawing board
for an even smaller turbo with even more bottom end! This turbo, run at
lower boost levels (less than 16 PSI) to keep it under 330 HP can be run
with mild upgrades such as a Stage III MAF and an adjustable fuel regulator.
If run higher than 16 PSI you will need a Stage IV MAF kit, HR big
injectors, adjustable FPR, upgraded ignition etc. How much can this turbo
make? This turbo has made as much as 396 HP at the wheels at higher
boost levels on a HR built 2.5ltr 944 turbo.
PRICE: Ball Bearing $1600
PRICE: 360deg Bearing $1300

I'm shooting for 360 next time out at 22psi. Made 347 last time at 20-21, and have since significantly improved the a/f ratio (thanks for Vitesse chips), fixed a few vacuum leaks, moved back to the "stage 3" MAF, cleaned the carbon off the pistons, upgraded BOV, removed Nology-junky wires, etc. Now, if I could just find a dyno that's available on a weekend...
