BB K26 turbo
I just picked up a KKK K26 oil and water cooled turbo off ebay. Ive been looking up on them it appears to be able to flow enough for 250 with a z6, at least thats what i am hoping for. Rumors have it some of the water cooled audi 5 cyclinder k26 turbos are ball bearing and this one was advertised as being so, well see whe n i get it Anyone else out here run one of the K26's?

Actually i have one of these K26 sitting in my garage that i was planning on installing on my z6. I picked up a log mani with a t3 flange on it and there is no way they are going to bolt up!!! I'm thinking of a way to let's say " clamp" the turbo onto the manifold using some metal pieces and bolts. As for it being ball bearing, personally i don't know but i have read about it aswell.
