This was all i could dig up from forums on the…GT-K…K for killer i guess.

Musings

" Turbonetics patented Angular Contact Ceramic Ball Bearing center section. Ceramic coated turbine housing and Black-Chrome Perma-Coating applied to compressor housing that has Map Enhancement Porting which is supposed allow the compressor to extend max efficiency across a broader range and provide additional airflow at high boost levels."

“absolutely NO options of different a/r’s on the hot sides. no options of wastegated, non wastegated, vband flange, 4 bolt flange, none of that good stuff. what you they make is what you get. while this may change in the future, as of the release this is what they plan from what i understand. they say it will have a something along the lines of twin thrust ceramic ball bearings, and from what i see, no water cooled options. there will be ceramic coating on the hot side and bearing housing standard, and i guess the one option is a “map enhancing port job” on the compressor.”

turbonetics is crap, garret’s where it’s at. It cracks me up that you throw a catchy name and cool colors on something as mundane as a turbo and all of a sudden it’s new and exciting. shit, as much as I don’t really like EVOs even their stock turbo has more technology than this thing. _laffo_

thats cool. but black pearl compressor housing, red lettering, and polished hot side housing and other misc. red accessories?

plus wtf. they don’t even tell you anything about the turbo…and you can’t even get different options. Therefore making this turbo strictly for show.
