Any experiences K29/K26 turbo?

[tiiikeri]

Hello! Now finally my rebuild of C20LET is nearly ready except turbocharger.

Now I need some advise from you...I have been thinking 2 options:
Garrett GT2871 and Dbilas exhaust manifold OR K29/K26 original look Turbo. I appreciate reliability and original look...Where to buy K29/K26 top quality turbo?

Which one you prefer and why? Have EDS any "bolt-on" chips to that K29/26 turbo? I run now with EDS Phase 3 set.

My motor is now:

-Wössner pistons
- Oil spray jets for piston cooling
- Eagle cams
- big XE inlet manifold
- XE inlet cam
- Optimised cylinder head
- new injectors (as soon as I decide which Turbo)
- ZLET oil pump and pipe mod by DONNI
- EDS Phase 3 chipsset
- Bosch fuel pump -538 with relay and wire mod
- Nitrized and optimized crankshaft
- big Intercooler
- EDS big intake cap for inlet
- ARP bolts
- DSOP 2 pipe downpipe
- Steinmetz exhaust (endschalldämpfer)


What more do I need for over 300 hp (can be more) reliable motor?

Please let me know soon about your opinions about turbo-options.Gladly with PM or e-mail...

Best regards

Toni

In the past I saw a balacing diagram and the revolution of the shaft was to low. When you want to buy such a turbocharger, I woud ask him to send a balancing protokoll, were the shaft speed is nearly the operation speed.

When you don`t now know this, you can calculate it by using the maximum peripheral speed at 540 m/s.
