Killerb Front facing low mount turbo kit

Some cool development going on here.

I do believe that Epic has the car as Robbie was tuning a car yesterday with this kit.

Would love to see a Topspeed tune done on this kit to really see how well it works. Very similar to what BatlGround did with Jeremy's old setup.

 

Dang I knew someone would build one one of these days. Had the idea but people wanted to charge and arm and leg for R&D. Might have to rethink my setup for the next motor. Good find.

 

I did it back in 04\05. There are lots of problems with running a setup like that. While it looks like he has solved a few of them, theres still a few things that concern me.

Also, the GT3071 may be the dumbest turbo ever to use on that kit.

 

Funny I was just telling bixs about something like this

 

and why would they recirc the ewg?? I would just let the thing scream!

 

Theres always an issue with the oil drain, you have to use a pump to get it out of the turbo and it actually creates a few issues.

If the pump fails you are going to push oil out of the seals on the turbo.

Blow through maf is a bad idea as well, the other thing is its sitting down kind of low and that concerns me at the track as you are putting the turbo closer to debris being kicked up by other cars.

 

let alone speed bumps, dead armadillos and the like

 

It's not 'that' low. It's well above the oil pan.

This car is at Epic right now. Was getting tuned by Robbie. Last I heard was 380/380 at 20.5 psi no AVCS timing and very conservative timing overall.

I'd like to see Topspeed tune this setup.....maybe ya'll should contact Killerb and tune a before and after for them.

I like the thick FMIC.

 

We just did a break in tune on a stock car with a front mount, topspeed\ams turbo kit, GTX3076R, etc.

It made 374whp at 14.4lbs of boost

 

Arguements aside Robbie is on a Mustang dyno.



But again it's fluff imo as my car only made 5 hp more with Robbies tune on TS dyno.

 

yours?

 

He said stock car. His is in no way stock.

 

My new setup is pretty normal actually, RR1, Stock Heads, GTX3076R, AMS Front Mount.

Nothing really extreme

 

RR1 forged pistons......not stock.

 

Its not stock but its not like its a super crazy build, very obtainable for other owners. We do at least one build a month based off this setup.

Extreme no. Stock again no.

Now back on topic about the killerb kit and not some other kit.

 

For the record, I hope it works, I hope the thing turns out to be amazing.

Its a great idea and the execution looks pretty good so far.

 

I agree on the turbo choice. But it's vband so any other vbanded kit will and should work.

 

Generally venting on the bottom of the diffuser would be considered an air inlet as its a high pressure area, to vent air out you would have to do it out of the hood. Regardless there would need to be lots of testing.
