K24 or K14? Is it worth buying and running this at 20psi? That is, if it's a K24.
Thanks
it *LOOKS* like a K24.. but that picture doesnt tell us much. a picture of the whole thing woulda been more useful..
I'm getting pictures from the guy selling it.
Will it be super laggy if I run it at 20 psi? Or I guess what's most important is: will the headgasket last at 20 psi?

its a toss up. you might get lucky. my Audi has a K24, 25psi boost, and it still has a stock head gasket.
my rabbit is running a VNT, maxes out at right around 20 psi.. my head gasket is still intact..
its going to be laggy tho, not bad, but its not going to be like a K14 or a K03..
I see, I see
The turbo comes with a manifold and wastegate; do I need the K24 oil return line too?
And secondly, how would I remove the watercooling from the K14?
i don't think they are laggy, its not like instant boost or but as the engine spool so does the turbo, and i could hit 20-30psi well before the engine was close to red line. i'd rather have a laggy turbo down low anyway and have more power in higher gears, cheap traction control haha. k24 is a sweet turbo tho imo, good match for a 1.6 beyond our stock turbos it's hard to find something that will make the boost we need effeciently with out passing the surge line.
That is NOT a 1.6TD K24, the comp housing part# should be 5324 101 5014
Å jasså?
What kind of turbo is it then?
Do you have more pictures/numbers of it?
mvh

I don't but there is a link on bilforumet under parts for sale. There is a guy on VACN buying it!
Not much info there, guess we'll see when the new owner takes a closer look on it
It's official: it's a K24.
But I can't afford it, so no nice big turbo for me
