Who will be happy with 300-320rwhp?

Tial WG and cat bypass.
I thought the high backpressure was the main reason it is not a good idea to go much over 15 psi boostpressure on a stock 26/8 (?).
If the backpressure on your modified 26/8 i lower, maybe 16-17 psi boostpressure is ok on that turbo?

Yes, if you turn the boost up to 18++ psi, it's a totally different game. But to me the cheater 26/8 looks very similar to the stage 2 as long as your maximum boost is 15-16 psi. Correct John?

I checked the backpressure on my (ex) 951S with 26/8. Boostpressure fell from max 15psi to 12,5 psi at 6200 rpm. Backpressure at 6200 rpm was 25 psi!

Your k26/8 with the Tial WG should hold 15psi boost to redline. Something is not right??
We address the backpressure issue!

By the end of Sep. we will have both K26 #6 and #8 cheater turbos on the shelf. This will expedite the turn around time, so you don't have to wait a couple of weeks to get your turbo back. The turbos are on exchange basis!
Those who are interested in this package, please email me directly to place your order.

Hi John,
First of all, this kit seems like a great way to go, well done.
Is it the mods you're making to the turbo that address the backpressure issue or is it something external that can be purchased from Vitesse for use on my K27/6 (happily running with Vitesse MAF & software already of course!)?
