[Es2] anybody out there?

Mike,
 I'll keep my eyes open for one. I realize when you say beefier you mean performance wise and not overall strength but the KKK turbos will last longer than the garrets almost always. I have had two garret turbo's and both lasted less than 10K miles before they needed a rebuild. I run a hybrid K27 now and its got over 40K miles and 30psi at many track events and still is fine. Anyway, just my personal experience.
 Sounds like you have all the right stuff to mount the tranny. I didn't have the RS2 line from the slave cylinder but I was able to bend the urs4 line to make it work. What clutch and flywheel are you going to use?
 
Elijah

Hey Elijah, 


Yeah, I check each and every K24 that pops up on ebay, but have not found one worth bidding too high on. The K24 will be temporary a I plan on going with a beefier turbo from 034Efi as soon as I run through the first set of tires. 


I do have the S2 halfshafts and V6 subframe as well as the proper slave cylinder and all the gear shift linkages, so I think the 4000cs (or is it a kq?) driveshaft is all I lack (that I'm aware of).


Thanks for the feedback!


Mike

Mike,
 I see K24's come up on ebay here and there. As for the RS2 tranny, do you have the S2 front halfshafts and V6 front subframe or a spacer? If not you'll need these as well, I used the 4000cs driveshaft and it worked fine. Anyway, sounds like things are moving along. Winter has been my big hold up as well (unheated garage).

Progress continues here, albeit slow. Too many other projects and the cold weather is no help. 
 
Waiting on head porting work to be completed and needing a turbo to complete the parts. Matching up the 200 wiring harness to the CQ intimidates me as does pulling the dash, so I'm reading every bit I can on solving the wiring puzzle before diving in. 
 
Issues that need advice / help: 
 
I need a new turbo, TEC in Denver disassembled what I had and sent it back in pieces after they closed up shop. Any unwanted K24s out there? 
 
Should I pull a driveshaft from a 4000 CS to use with the RS2 tranny or should I have my CQ shaft cut shorter? 
 
Did I mention I need a turbo? 
 
Kind regards to you all,
