    been looking on the viva performance website and they claim theyre hybrid turbo can make 420 bhp. so im thinking about a k24/26 hybrid. i always thought the k24 couldnt flow enough gases but it seems im wrongs. anyone know anything about this tune

    kkk24 can flow 537cfm compared to the 19t's 500cfm, but i think they made the kkk24 out of the same metal as the early con-rods lol

    ive got 85k on mine and turbo is still going strong. its been remaped for at least 7 of those years. if well maintained then theyll keep going strong. havnt heard of many failures if im honest.

    Personally I think you should hold your horses and benchmark the thing on the drag strip.
