I swear I'm almost done guys. lol I am almost 98% sure the car will start tommorow, and probably drive down the road on friday. After that, I need about a 500 mile break in before I turn the boost up and then go hit the dyno. I will definetly be sure to let you guys know.
any updates so far?

Have had Kandos in my car for some time now. Put lots of hard miles on her and no issues as of yet. Still just running the 8 lb springs that came stock w the kit. Haven't pulled the inlets off to check for shaft play but havent had any smoking or boosting issues. Still spools super fast like when I first put them in. Car is in storage AGAIN now, will be in Afhgan till next summer.

I put the Kando centers in my car last year when I rebuilt everything. Turbo's were smoking after 3 yrs of use & abuse. Bolted right in with no problems. When I got the car on the dyno and compared it to the tune back in 2007 the Kando's spool much faster. The graph climbed a lot faster than the stock crap turbo centers that came with the APS kit.

Here's what I received from Devin on the turbos that will be available for the APS upgrade. It's not cheap but the 6766's will get me where I want to be with my 402.
6262 is rated at 70lb/min. the new 6266 rated at 80lb/min. the new 6766 rated at 93/min

Oh those pictures just make me warm and fuzzy all over. I can't wait to get my set for the 427 I am building and try for 1000 or 1200 rwhp. Keep up the good work Devin my man, I like how DKT is cast into the housings so people will know you have had these made for sure and in country.

Looks good!
What is the A/R sizing? Thats the next issue we have with the APS housings. The Z06 housings are not too large. 1.06 vs .86 for the 20G.
Precision doesnt offer lb/min ratings for their turbos. 6766s will not flow 93 lb/min. They make 740-800 maxed out in single form, and from my experience, they are more than capable of 1300 rwhp in twin form.

Louis, you sure Precision doesnt rate them???? i doubt Devin would just pull numbers out of his ***. lol. now i do think precision bases theres off of 30psi. but not the point. point is just saying that they will not. lol. idk. guess i will have to call precision. if Devin is lying to me it will **** me off. but if he aint i will be overly happy.
also now i know that there is some differences, but back in my old world there is a 2.0L Evo making 900 AWH. so if the old 6765 will make 900. i cant see why the new 6766 in a set of twins wont make more than 1300.

idk, at the end of the day. i know the 6766 will get me at 1200. i think LG upgrades are great. just love the Ball bearing option.

ok. i talked to Devin @dkt and Justin @ precision
first Justin says the numbers above are right using the new CTA wheels they released. 6262=70lb/min, 6266=80lb/min, 6766=93lbmin. but these are all at 30psi. so idk how that convertes to APS number of rating stuff at 18psi. anyone help with this??????
second Devin said DKT/APS casting A/R is 1.06. so on my 427 (well anyones v8) will be great.
