Comparing turbos before I go ahead and start installation. Just wanted to share and confirm. I have a K27/8 7200 , which is the old turbo and a SFR Stage 1 turbo that was recently rebuilt 5k miles ago according to seller. I was told it was a 57 trim turbonetics with a #6 hotside. But after comparing and measuring the two, the hotsides seem to be identical. Can anyone confirm? I measured turbine inlet to be roughly 2" and outlet to be 2.2". Do I have #6 hot sides or #8 hotsides of both? k27 has 12 blade turbine while the SFR has 11 blade. Thanks in advance -Wayne

***UPDATE***
K27/8 7200 is for sale. Low miles roughly 10k from fresh rebuild. No leaks or smoke. little to no shaft play. I saw 18 psi at 31-3200rpm with multiple exhaust and header leaks. Asking $650 OBO shipped to USA. Location is in Honolulu, HI. Price is negotiable.

SFR Stage 1 Turbo might be for sale as well, depending if I can get the Vitesse Stage 2 thats up for sale. LOL

Thanks for looking </b>

measure the inducer and exducer in both turbine and compressor wheels.

The K27/8 hybrid does indeed appear to use a #8 hot housing, the SFR turbo appears to use a #6 housing machined to accept the larger turbine.
