>     Larger shaft for greater high rpm stability
>     Larger bearings
>     Larger compressor
>        Same exducer diameter as "stock" K26
>        Inducer is larger than both "stock" K24 & K26
>           So "stock" K26 has its own built in restrictor
>           "Stock" K24 does not have enough metal to bore out.

>     Larger exducer from the turbine
>        More lag
>           That is why we offer a special model
