Subject: RE: Turbo Swap k24-k26


I just swapped the K24 on my 4000 TQ for a K26. The car now has a little lag
below 3500rpm, which would probably be negligible at sea level (I'm at
5000ft +), but has much better upper mid range and high end power (with
about 14psi boost). This is on a dual knock sensor, higher compression MC
motor with a mild cam, 2-piece EM and 944T intercooler.

I think the only situation where the K24 would be preferable is for
autocross, but for the track or highway driving the K26 is much better in
this application. On the other hand, I think the K24 would really help the
driveability of my nearly stock (chip & spring only) 5000 TQ.
