Basic generic info:



Early air cooled and water cooled K26: same configuration up to mid 1989



Beginning mid 1989 through 3B 200, RR urq, S4, and S6 the K26 was
dropped for a K24 with a larger compressor inducer, but a smaller
exducer on the compressor.  The turbine had a smaller exducer.



K24 was used on the RS2 and a turbine with a larger exducer than the K24
turbos above was used, but not as big as the 5000.  Compressor was a K26
using the same size exducer as the 5000/200 but an inducer larger than
the K24 above, so a lot more air capacity.  More lag, but not as much as
the 5000.

There are two types of K-26's as installed on the 1986-1989 200/5000
turbo.



The difference as I know it is the exhaust exducer is larger on the
early

K-26 (1985-1986). Does anybody know the performance characteristics
between

the two?
