RE: UrQ with K24, anyone with track experiences??

For all the seekers of the K24, it has less boost on the top end than the
K26, the only advantage is a "quicker spool" which is mostly beneficial for
the street, not the track! For the track bigger is better!

Very happy with his K24

I've had one track experience with my watercooled K24 UrQ (IA Stage 1
running 2.0 bar).  While I wouldn't trade back to the K26 for street
use, I was disappointed by the heat soak and lack of power at the end of
hard runs.

To be completely honest, though, I was losing a head gasket at the same
time, so my results may have been tainted.

Were I to spend more time on the track , I would absolutely revert to
the K26 and/or enlarge the intercooler.

BTW, I was extremely happy with my ATE Powerdisks, Pagid pads, and
SP8000's on the track. (This club meet penalized you for R-compound
rubber)

For the street, though, I love the K24.
