hey guys, I'm a proud owner of an MB6 VTI with a couple of miles (215k+) and I've been researching about turbocharging my engine! I know this must be an old topic and might upset some veteran users here on the forum....

I kinda know what i need to buy /do ( forged rods, sleeves, retainers and Valve springs etc etc) and I want to know how well does the K27.2 turbo with my engine!
I already have the turbo, I just wanted to know if it's worthing repairing it or just go to a different turbo!
The goals are between 400-500hp( 5xx if possible) on gas pump
Any suggestion and info about this particular turbo model is well welcome

 

The wide range of turbo experts can be found in the Forced Induction forum.

 

Thanks for the reply! I've been there trying to find something useful there, but I just see A/R. specs and flanges types.. I can't read anything about its potencial or someone else that actually did a turbo build with it

 

Did you create the same thread in the Forced Induction forum? If not, post one, and members are sure to make useful comments.

 

Yes, I'm awaiting for a moderator to approve my post!! Anyway, thanks for everything!
