You cna get the Garret TO4 series in as many combinatons as you can think of.Most of these will be smaller then the k-29.However, smaller doesnt neccessarily mean not as good.The Garret turbos are much more efficient then the KKK turbos.If you want a Garret that is similiar in size to a k-29 then you will need to look at a T-58, 62-1, T-66 or somethign along those lines. Beware though, most of these turbos can not be used with the stock intake manifold. You would need something like the intake manifold we build to make it work.Take care.

The new Porsche turbo's are all twin turbo, so they use smaller turbo's.
