Well I don't have it on yet, but I'm a ton closer as of today. I got a wonderful Christmas gift a day early from my friends down at Champion in the form of AN fittings and SS lines which I needed for the install. I even got one section of the new Starlite hose, which is like SS braided but instead of SS it uses Kevlar and Nomex. I should hopefully be able to put the turbo in this weekend. One thing though is I'm having a ton of trouble finding any info, especially a compressor map, for it. The 3k-Warner (KKK) part # is 5327 970 7006 which comes up as a stock Porsche 930 unit (http://www.turbodriven.com/en/productsearch/index.asp), but this turbo is configured for a 944 going by the k26 hot side and the fact that it's a water cooled turbo which would be.....tricky to say the least on a 930! Anybody have any clue on where to find a map for a 930 in stock trim? That at least would give me a ballpark on the flow this thing should handle, and maybe the compressor is still stock 930 even though it's mated to the k26 core and hot side.

Extra info just in case. On the nameplate I have:
Kund.-NR : (blank)
GROSSE: k27
ATL-NR: 91 301 0561
AUSF.-NE: 5327 970 7006

On the cold housing I see "5375 101 50" and stamped right after that is  "65" (65 trim wheel?) and then next to that is another stamp with a "6" inside of a clock looking graphic. On the back side of the cold housing (not on the removable cover, but on the rear housing that the removable cover bolts to, behind the compressor wheel) is a bunch of numbers that I can't discern what they are for. There are 9 sets of numbers, one example is:

5327-5798
=077.8/18.3

Each set looks simmilar to that, only obviously the actual numbers vary. Is this maybe some kind of map?

Hot housing is 100% identical to stock Porsche 944/Audi 5000 MC-1 k26 turbo. Core is configured for a 944 with side feed water ports instead of top/bottom like the Audis. Also has larger oil feed and larger drain then the Audi k26.

Sorry for the long post, but I want to make sure that every spec of info is availible to anybody that may be able to help with my quest for a map. Any way arround it this thing HAS to be better then the stock k26!
