Default KKK K26 and Garret T3 Comparable?

I was just wondering, I've never really heard of KKK K26 turbo's, and I may possibly be buying a kit which includes this turbo. He says its comparable to the Garret T3, nearly identical specs, is this true? Is there any negative feedback on this turbo? I'd like to know, thanks.

I have heard they are similer in size however the flange will be different. Actually Ive even heard of kkk turbos being rebuilt with garett parts so they have to be pretty similer.

I'm not sure about this particular model, but alot of KKK turbos are ball-bearing. Have been for some time

I'm using one on my 93 Integra, b18a, 8PSI
It's very close to the T3 turbo, I have no problems with it at all, the worst was modifying a tubular manifold to fit the turbo. It spools at 3400 and full boost around 4200 RPMs.

I like it! Specially because i got it at a Junk Yard for $40!
